Now in its tenth year, the Wounded Warrior Project’s Adaptive Watersports Festival invites injured veterans to Rockaway Beach for a weekend of restorative mental and physical activity.
Removed from the scaffolding of Manhattan in the middle of one of the country’s oldest and most vocally patriotic Irish neighborhoods, the Wounded Warrior Project’s Adaptive Watersports Festival could not be held in a more symbolic location. Here, the shadow of the Twin Towers and the glint of the near-complete One World Trade Center loom large.

NORTH PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WLNE): A complete stranger is fronting the bill for a nurse who had her tires and rims stolen right off her car.
ABC6 News first told the story on Monday after a nurse at Our Lady of Fatima Hospital in North Providence finished her shift when she made the shocking discovery.
Karen Arpin has been on the front line of the pandemic, not only as a nurse in the emergency room but a sergeant in the Rhode Island National Guard.
Arpin told ABC6 News she had to pay the insurance deductible herself because the hospital wouldn’t. That’s when a viewer and stranger saw our story and decided to pay it forward.
