GAME ON
EVERYONE
About a year ago, three local parents formed a group called “Game On Everyone”. As parents of children with varied disabilities, Leanne Little, Claire O’Connell and Jason Pryde united with a vision to increase sport and recreational opportunities for all people who have a disability or impairment, living in the Upper Clutha Area. During the last year “Game On Everyone” have been able to organize many activities thanks to the fantastic support from local sporting organisations. Regular indoor lawn bowls afternoons at the Wanaka Bowls Club, adapted swimming lessons at the local pool, a gymnastics group thanks to the Aspiring Gymsports Wanaka, an adapted ski group at Cardrona
Alpine Resort and a climbing day at the Clip and Climb in Wanaka. The Wanaka Athletics Club have also been fantastic in developing a number of inclusive programmes for those who are keen.
Thanks to all our sub-contractors
