NEW ULM Rain or shine, the staff and volunteers of Adaptive Recreation Services (ARS) find ways to make sure community participants stay active.
On Tuesday, staff and volunteers held a drive-thru pickup outside the Community Center during the downpour. Each ARS on-the-go activity is provided in a bag full of small gifts and craft items. This month, the participants were given a “welcome summer” sign to paint.
ARS is a nonprofit organization that provides recreational outings and group-oriented programming for teens and adults living with disabilities, in New Ulm and the surrounding area. The COVID pandemic has been hard on ARS. The group has been unable to meet for in-person events since the pandemic started. Fortunately, ARS has lived up to its name and adapted to the situation.
