What is inclusion?
Inclusion is intentional. It is about identifying and removing barriers so that everyone can participate to the best of their ability.
The mission of Sam’s Posse is to create accessible and inclusive activities and play spaces for individuals of all abilities.
A Bike For Brielle
POWAY RODEO fans in 2023 – 2024 were once again feeling very “Tip-sy.” Their generosity helped purchase additional adaptive bikes for individuals in our communities. All tips collected at the many beverage bars throughout the Rodeo were donated to SAM’S POSSE and used to purchase custom adaptive bikes.
One of this year’s recipients, Brielle, was gifted a custom Freedom Concepts bike in front of the fans at the 2024 POWAY RODEO. The bike was designed to meet her needs in her favorite color, purple! It has a specialized seat to keep her stable, rear steering for her caregiver to maintain control, and so much MORE.
Bikes like these are rarely covered by insurance and considered to be “recreational.” The benefits that Brielle will receive are far from that. Her new bike will help to improve both her fine and gross motor skills, social skills and more. Thanks to the POWAY RODEO for partnering with SAM’S POSSE, and to all the amazing Rodeo fans who through your generosity have made the world a more inclusive place to live and play for Brielle and her friends.
