Great Lakes Adaptive Sports Association
The PGA
Tour Wives Association Nationwide TOUR, visited the (GLASA)
Great Lakes Adaptive Sports Association on Wednesday June
8 during the La Salle Bank Open tournament. Cindy Housner,
the executive director of the organization, welcomed the wives
with open arms, a lot of water and snacks because it was a
very warm day in Chicago. Thirteen wives participated in this
charity event and enjoyed playing tennis with three talented
tennis players just happened to be in wheelchairs. GLASA provides
opportunities for people of all ages to participate in sports
activities such as water skiing, soccer, golf, tennis, snow
skiing and fishing. Cindy pointed out to the wives that they
have programs for wheelchair bound, disabled and seeing-impaired
individuals. Cindy also taught us that GLASA is doing its
best to promote healthy lifestyles and it seems like they
are accomplishing a lot of smiles, as well. |
