This week, we dove into everything from weather updates and health check-ins to brainstorming exciting conference ideas. 🌟
One fun (and delicious) challenge? Figuring out how to bring ice cream to our upcoming conference while navigating hotel catering rules and costs! 🍦❄️
We also tackled important topics like handling funds after the loss of an account owner and explored ways to support our adaptive sports program, ensuring more opportunities for our incredible community.
📢🤗💙
We discussed the upcoming conference in Norfolk, VA, including registration details & hotel bookings.
Althea shared her experiences living with arthrogryposis, her personal journey, & her recent projects, including a “Biozine” featuring people with disabilities!
We also discussed terminology preferences regarding disabilities & the use of assistive devices and explored potential opportunities for collaboration and future meetups!
📢🤗💙
We shared laughs and struggles over health adventures and the surprisingly tricky task of using Microsoft Paint for serious academic work. We also gave a big, warm welcome to our newest member from Georgia!
The conversation got even more exciting as we brainstormed ideas for our upcoming conference—like locking in a yearly go-to spot, shaking things up with a shorter format plus an optional fun-packed third day, and organizing mini field trip groups for extra adventure.
Of course, planning a conference that works for families across different regions isn’t easy, so we dove into what makes a location family-friendly and how to get more input from everyone (cue: poll time!). Lots of ideas, lots of energy, and plenty to look forward to!
