The off-season: City of Edina - Adaptive Recreation Golf

We had a terrific season. A huge thank you to our coaches, volunteers, staff, players and their support crew(s).

At our pizza party Sue Bradsher suggested we ad some web site resources about off-season activities for MN Special Hockey players. We don't yet have a summer hockey camp (one day?), but there are some adaptive sports programs our community has enjoyed.

I've heard good things about Edina's Adaptive Recreation program for winter skiing and spring golf. We're going to sign Tim Faughnan up to play, though we'll also be looking at what the Minnesota Special Olympics program will be doing this summer

City of Edina - Adaptive Recreation

The fees to register for AR&LE programs are broken into Resident and Non-Resident amounts. A Resident is classified as anyone living in the City of Bloomington, Eden Prairie, Edina or Richfield. Non-Residents are considered to be those living outside of Bloomington, Eden Prairie, Edina or Richfield. The difference in these fees is minimal.

Participants in the AR&LE programs need a completed profile. It's a form that's printed and mailed in. I'm sending it with our golf registration form.
