A Fun Day on Deer Island!

On Saturday, August 24th, MASS self advocates and staff joined the Winthrop Commission on Disability for a day of outdoor fun on Deer Island. The day was full of sun and memorable experiences! Participants got to try fishing, accessible biking, pedicabs, and even take a boat tour around Boston Harbor. After all of the action, participants could cool off in the tent area, listen to music from WMEX 1015AM, and drink cold water from the Quabbin Reservoir provided by the MWRA! MASS was joined by many other organizations in providing support for the event, including: Friends of Winthrop Beach, The Mass Department of Conservation, MassWildlife, Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital, the Winthrop Arc, and more - it was truly a group effort! Check out the photos taken by various MASS staff members, and be sure to join us next year at this great annual event!
