This was sent my way by our old friend Matt. It sounds like a really good opportunity for people to learn goalball or get another chance to play the game. I hope lots of people take advantage of it. The Ontario Blind Sports Association (OBSA) in partnership with the City of Toronto is proud to …

A Flash Of Cash On Carden Street, Version 2.0
I plugged the first one on Twitter but for some reason or other never got around to posting about it here, so I’m not going to let that happen again. Rob Campbell had a great idea a while back. Since things have been so hard for the businesses on Carden Street these last few years, …

3 Clips, 1 Post
I really should have had this up at the end of last week, but sleeplessness, laziness and a Fathers’ Day weekend out of town all conspired to make sure that didn’t happen. So, here it is now. Yet more Access Recreation Day clips have been edited and posted. There are 3 of them here,featuring Cyndy …
I Could Hang Out With The Smart Ass Cripple…If He’d Let Me Find Him That Is
The other day, I linked to the blind guy avoidance techniques on the Smart Ass Cripple’s blog. Well, now I’ve gone back and read everything on that blog…and it’s awesome!

Enjoy The Sunrise
Another of the Access Recreation Day audio bits I did has gone up. You can go here for a quick chat with Sarah from the Sunrise Therapeutic Riding and Learning Centre. We’re getting to the end of the quick interviews, so soon one of us (likely Carin) will have the fun task of editing down …
Enabling Garden Audio
Another bit of Access Recreation Day audio found its way onto the internet last night. This time, I spend a little over 4 minutes talking to Lea Tran from the Guelph Enabling Garden, which is a pretty neat place. She talks a bit about the accessibility features that make planting things and tending to them …
My Talk With A Wheels In Action Organizer
I love many things in this life. Two of those things happen to be plugging things I’m involved in in any way and easy blog content. So let’s scratch both of those itches at once, shall we? As you may recall, last Thursday was Access Recreation Day, and Carin had a pretty big hand in …
