ATHLETES WITH DISABILITIES NETWORK NORTHEAST CHAPTER is dedicated to creating awareness and offering mentoring and opportunities for local athletic, recreational and education activities for those with physical disabilities, especially for veterans and first responders.
“There’s No Replacement for Competitive Spirit”
ADN Northeast runs mini clinics at various locations around the northeast area to introduce and train disabled athletes in sports such as tennis, archery, basketball, and gym workouts.
On Saturday, December 8th, they will hold a fund raiser 5k & 1 mile fun run/walk in Pennsauken, NJ.
Brooke Artesi, owner and CEO of Sunshine P&O and an avid athletics amputee, will be running. “ADN has a valuable mission for those with physical challenges and we’re proud to be a participant as well as a sponsor of this event.”
