Lose The Training Wheels at UTA

Lose The Training Wheels was a week long camp at UTA hosted by the Down Syndrome Partnership of Tarrant County that taught individuals with disabilities how to ride two-wheel bicycles. Most of the sessions I went to were full and it was great to see how many volunteers came out to help. Most of the kids seemed hesitant to go for the two-wheel bikes but soon overcame the challenge. While talking to a parent, I could see the joy it gave them to see their child do something like this because to most of these kids it is the most freedom they will have with transportation. We found out about the event last minute but I'm glad I had the chance to shoot it. For the full story, check out TheShorthorn.com.
