Don't miss the Wasatch Adaptive Sports Season-End Party and Jeff Page Memorial Ride next Wednesday, 10/23 at Highland Glen Park in Highland, UT from 5-7pm. Jeff was a longtime adaptive cyclist with WAS and other local adaptive organizations. After sustaining a spinal cord injury, he worked tirelessly to improve bike technology for people with quadriplegia -- pioneering a number of solutions that he spent many years perfecting and sharing with folks with similar disabilities. "Without the programs available to other disabled people and me" wrote Jeff, "we'd be much less likely to be able to ride. Being outdoors and able to ride and talk to others is also a significant mental advantage." Enjoy a fun and friendly evening with WAS doing what Jeff loved: biking with friends and family. Food and drinks will be provided. Please RSVP by calling 801-834-0476 or emailing WAS at programs@wasatchadaptivesports.org. #TogetherInMotion
