Turnstone's mission is to empower people with disabilities to achieve their highest potential while helping to create a world that accepts and values people based on their abilities.
Anyone can participate in the 5th Annual Push Paddle Pedal challenge no matter your age or ability. You choose to move in the best way for you!
Join us on our journey to move this summer while educating our community about individuals with disabilities and feeling empowered to take charge of our own mental and physical health.
Your summer challenge is to move 1,000 minutes and help Turnstone create possibilities, which might sound like a lot - but we at Turnstone believe anything is possible. Moving just 15 minutes a day until July 31st will help you reach your goal while ensuring that people with disabilities in our community receive the services and support they need most.
Do what you find most enjoyable - walking the trails, pushing your wheelchair around the neighborhood, or paddling along the rivers and lakes. No matter how you choose to move, every minute you log is a win!
Your $25 registration fee includes a Push Paddle Pedal 2024 t-shirt with the rest of the proceeds coming to benefit Turnstone's services and programs for people with disabilities. NEW: registrants who complete the challenge will receive a Push Paddle Pedal 2024 medal!
