Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital held its 11th Annual Set Sail on Sunday, September 13, 2009 to benefit the Dr. Charles H. Weingarten Adaptive Sports and Recreation Program.
It was a beautiful day and over 475 guests enjoyed food from RedBones Barbecue, beverages from Burke Distributing and Downtown Wine and Spirits, games, boating, Barn Babies, live music, face painting, balloon twisting, cupcake decorating, caricature artists, great silent auction items, appearances by local professional sports teams and so much more! On the Spaulding pier, the Dr. Charles H. Weingarten Adaptive Sports and Recreation Program provides hundreds of patients and others in the community with high-challenge activities such as adaptive windsurfing, kayaking, sailing, cycling and wall climbing. People of all ages with disabilities and limitations are meeting their rehabilitation goals through these enjoyable therapeutic experiences. Thank you to the many sponsors, auction donors, and attendees whose support helped the many programs and services the hospital has provided to its patients and the local community.
