ORGANIZATION
Adaptive Fusion wants to grow our Dragon Boat Team for People with Disabilities and Support Paddlers, which means we need a LOT of people to try this sport.
We are open to any ways to do this. Some of our ideas so far are:
1) Research groups that help the disabled, find a contact person or how to be listed as a resource.
3) Locate and consider advertising in media that people with disabilities use.
3) Create a campaign that attracts new paddlers to the Adaptive Fusion Dragon Boat Team.

About ADAPTIVE FUSION DRAGON BOAT CLUB
Location:
Mothers Beach, 5839 Appian Way, Long Beach, CA 90802, US
Mission Statement
The purposes of Adaptive Fusion are to encourage and promote the benefits of dragon boat paddling and other beneficial and healthful physical activities among persons with disabilities, to educate the general public about the capabilities and accomplishments of persons with disabilities, to enhance the understanding and appreciation of the ancient sport of dragon boat racing and to educate support participants to advocate and find ways to accommodate and make accessible Dragon Boating to interested Para athletes.
Description
Dragon boating is a great sport for all people, but also for many people with challenges of various types (disabilities.) Fusion is thrilled to have started with paddlers who were blind or visually impaired and have now welcomed people who are Deaf, people who are amputees, people with PTSD, have anxiety or ADHD, and hope to welcome people with other challenges.
We train along with support paddlers at Mothers Beach in Long Beach and race locally, regionally, nationally, and worldwide. We are the three-time National Paradragon Champions and six-time medalists in the Club Crew World Championships.
