As Aaron's Acres grows and moves forward, the goal is to increase meaningful programming to support more individuals with disabilities and their families. In keeping with this goal, Aaron's Acres has announced a new partnership with the Chuckie Magee Flag Football and Cheerleading League for participants with disabilities ages 21 to 40, which will begin in August.
Chuckie Magee attended Aaron's Acres camp program when it was first established in 1998. His mom, Bev, was a member of the founding committee of Aaron's Acres. He was a camper for many years but passed away in 2015 at age 23.
Football games and cheerleading will occur on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to noon starting Aug. 13. There will be 10 games throughout the fall season. Games will take place at Manheim Brethren in Christ Church.
The program accepts adults ages 21 to 40 with varying abilities and disabilities. Registration will begin during the summer. There is no fee to register. Current details are available at http://www.aaronsacres.org. More information will be shared as it becomes available.
In addition to inviting those who wish to participate in football or cheerleading, Aaron's Acres will need volunteers willing to support participants during Saturday games. If interested, contact Randy Samuels at cmffl@ptd.net.
