Join us for a night of true stories about some of our first friends and enemies: our siblings. Storytellers from the “A Fierce Kind of Love” storytelling workshops will take to the stage with their true tales about how disability affects families. You’re invited to throw your name into the hat, and share your own story about a brother or sister too!

iCan Bike Camp 2018 @ Academy of Notre Dame | Villanova | Pennsylvania | United States

iCan Bike Camp 2018

Maggie McHugh from Notre Dame asked me to share their bike camp information with the members of DSIG. This year they will be hosting this camp for their 9th year! I can tell you from personal experience that this was one of the best decisions that I have made in my life when I decided to sign Lauren up for this camp! We did not find this camp until Lauren was 21 years old, but I always knew that she could ride, we just needed to find the right way to teach her. Thanks to this camp, Lauren is an awesome and safe bike rider and we very much enjoy our very long bike rides in Ocean City, NJ!

When: June 25-29, 2018
Where: Academy of Notre Dame
