As I come across useful references to hunting and fishing, I will put them in, but they are not activities I am concentrating on for this website.

  • Bridge II Sports in Durham, North Carolina, offers a wide variety of adapted sport opportunities.  In addition to team sports, they have fishing and kayaking.  Their phone  is 866-880-2742 and email is admin@bridge2sports.org .  Here is their website:  https://www.bridge2sports.org/about/ .  Thank you to Marya who wrote to tell me about Bridge II Sports and says she is starting to lead hikes for them.

FHNB has grown into a National Organization with 27 chapters in 13 states, enabling thousands of individuals with disabilities to participate fully in this spirit lifting, morale booster, trouble free recreational activity.
