On Monday, February 3rd at 6:30 PM, we will hold an in person club meeting, our speaker will be Lee Buckland.
The mission of Play for All Park is to provide a safe, fun place to play and develop new skills for people of all abilities in Central Texas and surrounding areas. The park caters to hundreds of visitors per day on average. Our expansion plans will enhance the options we offer to individuals and families not sufficiently met by the current park design, such as those with visual challenges or families with older siblings.
Our meeting will be held at Shoal Creek Saloon, located at 909 N. Lamar Blvd. This will be a very interesting program, we encourage you to invite family, friends, and colleagues to join us.
