Brookline’s Therapeutic Recreation department makes an effort to promote positive personal growth and independence in the lives of adults with disabilities. Last week, they met Waypoint at Central Rock Indoor Climbing Gym in Watertown to do just that.

One participant was a familiar face! She was reconnecting with Waypoint after having been on several programs back in 2010 and her mother recounted how the challenges she’s faced on Waypoint programs have made an outstanding impact on who she has grown up to be! We know adventure experiences make a difference when we hear stories like that!

Another young man was excited by the size of the gym and was busy the whole night. He climbed nine different routes and loved every one! There were big accomplishments this night and we look forward to more adventures with such a positive, adventurous group. Thanks Brookline Rec!
