We’re so thankful for all of the support we’ve received throughout this project! We’re so excited for the McCook Inclusive Playground
🛝 🤍

McCOOK, Neb. — All kids should be able to play at the park and people in the McCook area have agreed, as nearly a million dollars has been raised for an inclusive playground to be installed by the end of the year.

The fundraising goal of $925,100 has been met for inclusive playground equipment at Kelley Park, thanks to generous donations, grants and city support. When the idea was first brought up three years ago, however, organizers of the project were a bit daunted by the amount of money that needed to be raised.

“I want my daughter to see that people with disabilities are still rock stars” —Carrie is such an inspiration and an amazing advocate! 🤩 Check out her journey as Ms. Wheelchair Nebraska! Cheering for you, Carrie! 🤍

McCook woman will compete as Ms. Wheelchair Nebraska

McCOOK, Neb. — A McCook woman has been chosen to represent Nebraska in Ms. Wheelchair USA. Carrie Clay, a resilient mother, advocate, and former paramedic, has been named the 2025 Ms. Wheelchair Nebraska. Clay’s dream of competing for the title began to take shape as she researched the pageant over the past few years. Initially hesitant, she eventually felt empowered to pursue the title this year. “I had kept my eye on the competition for the past couple of years, but I didn’t really feel confident in myself enough to pursue it,” she said. The turning point came when she decided to take back control of her life as she approached her 30th birthday. “I needed to take back some of my emotional time,” she explained, by shifting her focus from simply trying to walk and staying out of the hospital, to embracing new opportunities for growth.

No👏🏻Helmet👏🏻Needed.
One of our favorite phrases!

Head shape at the initial evaluation (left) and head shape just 3 OT sessions later (right), 20 days between each picture!
This little one has been working on balancing her tension, showing increased motion through her whole body, improved symmetry (see the ears on the picture to the left), improving strength, and is on track with her motor milestones and oral motor skills!

We are always so thankful for parents for letting us be a part of their babies development and for the providers who trust us with their patients!!
