“I’ve never been in such good health—mentally or physically. I had PTSD from my accident, but rowing has improved my memory and mood. From the first time I went to the BAYADA Regatta, I’ve been hooked ever since. This is hands-down my favorite regatta, and I’m blessed to be able to do it.” – Joel, BAYADA Regatta Rower
After sustaining multiple traumatic injuries in a car accident and spending years on the couch, Joel discovered Brooks Adaptive Sports. He took a Learn to Row class at an able-bodied club and continues to train with Brooks Adaptive today. Joel’s story reminds us that with determination, you can thrive.
Cheer on Joel and other rowers at the BAYADA Regatta on September 13, 2025, at Camden County Boathouse in Pennsauken, NJ.
