Fall Fun at Ellms Family Farm! 🍂

Members of NABA’s Youth Program enjoyed a fantastic day at Ellms Family Farm in Ballston Spa — taking on the low ropes course, soaring on the zipline, and joining in hayrides, jumping pads, pedal bikes, and more. The kids even got to meet the farm animals, try their hand at gemstone mining, and pick the perfect pumpkin to take home!

A big “thank you” to the team at Ellms Family Farm for helping make these fall memories possible. 🍁💛

It was a beautiful Sunday in Delmar as NABA clients enjoyed an afternoon of tandem biking, partnering with our friends from the Saratoga Springs Lions Club and Camp Abilities Saratoga! 🚴‍♀️💛

Special thanks to Lions Club President Tom Boghosian, NABA Foundation Chair John McDonald, and all the sighted volunteers who made this experience possible — guiding, encouraging, and sharing in the laughter along the trails.

Moments like these remind us that accessibility, inclusion, and community spirit go hand in hand.
