Since 1985, Casa Colina’s Outdoor Adventures program has enabled thousands of people with disabilities and special needs to take part in exciting outdoor experiences that build confidence, foster a sense of community, and contribute to fitness and healing. First-time participants are encouraged to attend and past participants are welcome to return for new adventures. Last year’s event saw 83 staff and community volunteers serving 106 participants from Long Beach, Pomona, Palmdale, Santa Clarita, and even Las Vegas.

Land Meets Sea accommodates a wide variety of special needs with adaptive equipment designed by expert clinicians and operated by trained professionals. All activities are overseen by Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialists and trained volunteers, providing the highest level of safety for participants.

Participant registration costs $325 and includes three days of activities, lunches, a goodie bag, and a T-shirt. Those interested in attending or sponsoring the event should call Casa Colina’s Outdoor Adventures staff at (909) 596-7733, ext. 4131, or visit www.casacolina.org/LMS.
