We love getting to share our mission with the community!

We loved having Abilene Chamber of Commerce’s Leadership Abilene class visit us this week. Our Adaptive Recreation Center participants spoke to the group, along with our CEO. Proud to share how we serve Taylor, Jones, Callahan, Shackelford and Stephens counties!

On Sunday, March 22nd, we took a unified group to participate in the Ft. Worth PD Powerlifting Competition held at MetroFlex/The Castle.
Early morning trip, but a great time was had by our competitors! We want to thank the Ft. Worth Police Department, MetroFlex/The Castle, and all the volunteers for making this possible!

We also want to thank Abe Walzer at Alpha Aesthetics for allowing us to work out at the gym and for his valuable input!

There are several pictures as our camera person is a little snap happy.... Lol. This is just a small part of those.

CHEER SQUAD!!!!

We received so many complements for our cheer squad! They work hard all year to be ready to cheer when our teams hit the court or field!
They cheered for others as much as they cheered for the Bombers!

March is Developmental Awareness month and West Texas Centers, in Big Springs, host a celebration called Hoops, Dreams, and Goals. Centers bring basketball teams, cheer squads, and perform halftime shows. Our folks have practiced for weeks to prepare for this event.
They performed to Auracle Vibes “You Look Good”. We do not own the rights to the music.

Here is the Betty Hardwick Center Adaptive Recreation’s halftime show.
