Cary Park District Fall 2017 Fall 2017 Brochure | Page 29

Do you know someone with a disability who would
like to go out, have fun and make friends? Since 1976,
NISRA has provided recreation programs for people
with disabilities, and its mission is: enriching the lives of
people with disabilities through meaningful recreation
experiences. Socializing, building physical skills, learn-
ing, relaxation and fun are some of the benefits gained
from participating in NISRA’s year-round activities.
Sports, fitness, social, cultural, outdoor and preschool
programs, along with camps, special events and trips
offer enjoyment for children, teens and adults of all
ability levels. NISRA also offers Special Olympics train-
ing and competition in 15 sports.
The Cary Park District and 12 other districts form NISRA.
NISRA serves residents of McHenry County and parts
of Cook, Kane and Lake Counties. Programs are pro-
vided in community facilities throughout the area.
