2. The organization provides unique family camping experiences with peer support, occupational and physical therapy and functional ways to cope with daily activities. 

3. The Bike-a-thon is part of the Mayor's Wellness Campaign and includes three courses with varied levels of difficulty, a 2-mile (bronze), 5-mile (silver) and 10-miles (gold).
