AIM's regatta is an annual two-day event held at Earl Rowe Provincial Park that includes adaptive paddling, exciting games, community involvement, and an inclusive environment. It is a chance for the general public as well as all clients and their families to become familiar with AIM and our mission and see our work in action! 

AMI-tv Feature

Abilities in Motion was featured on the series "Our Community" on AMI-tv! The episode aired on May 2nd 2024! The AMI community highlights people, places, and organizations that make life for people with disabilities more enjoyable. 

Paddling Magazine Feature

For many of our past paddlers, as well as so many others, things have not quite returned to the way they were before COVID.

In an effort to make it a little easier to get back to what you loved, Abilities In Motion (AIM) is incredibly pleased to announce that for the upcoming paddling seasons we are waiving all individual and organizational membership fees.

 

Additionally, AIM is waiving all sessional fees for individuals with a disability and their support person (should one be needed). That's right! Paddling with AIM this summer is completely FREE!! AIM will continue to charge a fee for those seeking a certification course offered by one of our ORCKA or Paddle Canada instructors.

AIM has been able to do this thanks to the generous support of funders and our dedicated group of volunteers.

Abilities in Motion wishes to recognize and thank our sponsors and donors for their incredible support, and thank those that helped make our fundraising efforts, including Hands Across the Water such a success.

In return, AIM is asking all our paddlers (or organizations) to ensure they are attending all sessions for which they registered (or contact AIM when you realize you will be unable to make it so we can offer the spot to another paddler). Please continue to share your experiences and encourage new paddlers to come out and enjoy what AIM has to offer.
