🐢 During these chilly days, the Daybreak Adult Program crew has been staying busy indoors! Recently, the group visited Hickory Knolls Nature Center in St. Charles, where they learned all about reptiles and got an up-close look at turtles and snakes.

FVSRA's Daybreak Adult Day Program is designed for adults to socialize, learn new skills, and stay active through meaningful activities and community outings, all while building independence and confidence. More about Daybreak at https://www.fvsra.org/adult-day-programs/day-break/

🏔 FVSRA travelers are back from another successful annual trip to Breckenridge, Colorado! Each year, this experience brings time on the slopes, skill-building, shared meals, and meaningful connections. We even had a special birthday celebration on the plane!

We are grateful to work alongside the ski instructors in Colorado who help create a safe, supportive, and empowering environment. Our FVSRA staff also enjoy being on the slopes, assisting with instruction and supporting participants throughout the experience. Enjoy a look at some of the moments captured by our crew. We’re already looking ahead to next year’s Breckenridge adventure! 🎿

Everyone’s talking about 2016… so let’s rewind! ⏪

Ten years ago, social media was booming, the Cubs were winning the World Series, and at FVSRA, we were focused on building inclusive programs and meaningful connections in our community.

Fast forward to 2026, and we’re celebrating 50 years! A lot has changed since then, but our mission to provide inclusive recreation remains the same. 🌟
