Day 1 was a success! High Fives 1st ever adaptive fishing trip with #HighFivesAthletes. PC// Generikal Design

High Fives 1st ever adaptive rock climbing event took place Saturday, July 16th, 2016 with 10 #HighFivesAthletes! The High Fives Foundation teamed up with the Tahoe Adaptive Competition Center and world class climber Mark Wellman of No Limits to teach 10 High Fives Athletes the joys of adaptive rock climbing. Having a blast ascending and descending the 24 foot mobile climbing wall multiple times, each participant discovered a new outlet in outdoor adaptive recreation. 10 #HighFivesAthletes defying gravity// Roy Tuscany, Steve Wallace, Todd Wolfe, Ricci Kilgore, Greg Pope, Eric Daniels, Taylor Fiddyment, Luke Sugalumps Eckenberg, Jason Abraham & Jeff Andrews “Being scared of heights nearly my entire life, I was definitely stepping out of my comfort zone on Saturday. At the end of the day I climbed routes that I definitely didn’t think I’d be able to get up. It was a true sense of accomplishment, and an amazing day with amazing people!" - #HighFivesAthleteSteve Wallace PC// Generikal Design

#HighFivesAthletes using innovative adaptive technology to fish is definitely something to cheer about on a Monday! #FivesFish #TGIM #HighFivesAthlete #Gopro 📽 @gopro @generikal (at Big Hole C4 Lodge)

Genuine thank you notes are what make the 50+ work weeks worth it! Artwork and words from #HighFivesAthlete Jim Harris. "Hey Roy & the High Fives Team - Thanks so much for the trip to Maui! One thing about spine injuries, especially for athletes, is that it's so much harder to feel a part of a community. Most of my friendships were based on skiing or biking or hiking and when I couldn't do those things my friendships suffered. The High Fives surf camp pushed that trend back the other way. Instead of my injury isolating me, it was the reason to meet and hang out with a bunch of amazing people. Thanks for including me; i'll never forget it. Thanks for all the ways you support me, other athletes, and the way you build community! Sincerely, Jim Harris"

Birthday wishes go out to #HighFivesAthlete Nick Fairall! This guy has mono-skied for the first time, participated in a paralympic mono-ski race camp, visited the @crj_healingctr in Truckee 3 times, participated in an adaptive waterski camp, road a bike unassisted, learned how to drive with adaptive hand controls, and traveled to Bischofshofen to support his USA Nordic Jumping team, all in only 1 rotation around the sun. Congradulations on your accomplishments and Happy Birthday #newhampshirenick!
