Celebration of 36 years of the Americans with Disabilities Act!
Friday, July 31st, 2026

Members of the disability community from across Massachusetts gathered to celebrate the 36th anniversary of the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act. The event included accessible hiking and kayaking, swimming, music from the Tommy Filiault Band, and a hanging out with friends, old and new!
The event was put on in partnership with DCR’s Universal Access Program. All Out Adventures supported the accessible kayaking and Waypoint Adventure supported the accessible hiking.
We look forward to gathering in community and celebrating again next year!
