ADAPTIVE & INCLUSIVE RECREATION:

The following program has been designed to help participants who are challenged get the most out of their leisure experience! These programs have been modified to provide a safe and supportive environment to learn and practice both program skills and personal skills. Peer mentors attend most programs to provide visual and social cues and to keep things fun. These and other supportive services are available to anyone who wishes to attend any of our other programs. For further information on supportive services, please call the Parks and Recreation Dept. at (203) 454-6106 to speak with the Inclusive Recreation Coordinator.

HOW TO GET INCLUDED:

Register for the recreation program. On the registration form under “special considerations,” request that the Inclusive Recreation Coordinator be contacted to provide supportive services. The Coordinator will then contact you and the program instructor to gather information and provide reasonable supportive services for that program. You may begin the program with the supportive services in place. The Inclusive Recreation Coordinator may periodically observe the program to provide support and to answer any questions.

Ice Skating: Ages 5-13

Come to the Westport PAL Rink at Longshore, learn to skate and have a great time outdoors!   Instruction is designed for children who are challenged in both an individual and group setting.  Coaches will provide instruction on the basic skills of skating and to make skating fun!  Parents are encouraged to skate with their child to facilitate a positive experience and to aid them if necessary.
