Lose The Training Wheels 200
See a news clip about Lose The Training Wheels. It was not filmed at the St. Louis camp, but the results are the same.
This year we are partnering with The Pujols Family Foundation andMO-FEAT to improve the camp for everyone. The camp is open to riders with Down syndrome, autism and other developmental disabilities.
Volunteers:
If you would like to volunteer at the camp, we could use your help. The best way to experience the excitement is to pick one session to volunteer at for all five days. You will then be able to see the progression from nerves and anxiety to pride and confidence as your rider learns to ride.
However, any amount of time you can spend at the camp, will help change a child's life forever.
Session times are:
- 8:00am - 9:15am
- 9:30am - 10:45am
- 11:00am - 12:15pm
- 1:30pm - 2:45pm - Still Need Volunteers
- 3:00pm - 4:15pm - Still Need Volunteers
The first step in volunteering is to contact Jeffrey (jeffrey@dsagsl.org or 314-226-1713) and talk to him about how we can best use your abilities. We can use all types of volunteers!
Then please, download our Volunteer Enrollment Form (doc) (pdf) and complete it. Then you can bring it with you to camp.
