		<description><![CDATA[Twelve years ago, I went into emergency with vertigo and blurred vision and the most horrible headache I’d ever even imagined. A lot of my memories from that period of time are blurry, but I do remember an earnest young doctor looking at a picture of my skull and saying, “You are bleeding into your brain. You could die.”]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I did the kayaking portion of the Ski to Sea race this year with Troy as my pilot. It felt really great at first, and I know I said “I remember now, I’m good at this!” Just past the first checkpoint, I also said that it was starting to feel like work. Troy just said “Well, how about some music, then.” For those of you who don’t know me yet, I sing. I sing at any possible occasion, and really, what’s better than a captive audience?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Troy Becker who originated the organization, I believe, is to be commended most highly as a visionary humanitarian. He is very wise in his choice of staff and volunteers. As well, the equipment is carefully chosen to provide safe outdoor activities for people with disabilities who are often otherwise housebound.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I myself am a visually impaired person but that does not stop me from enjoying the outdoors. I started with CRIS three years ago and have looked forward to helping with the hikes every day. 

To me, CRIS is a good place to meet people and enjoy the outdoors. It makes me feel good knowing that I am helping with a group that takes people out that can't normally go and do a hike or bike. To me, the reward is just seeing the smile on there face when they are out doing stuff and hearing the laughter coming from them.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It was my very first official rock climbing experience, save for a climb I did in the Sacred Valley of Peru, which didn’t require ropes. The climb with the CRIS group was the real thing! Before the climb, including hike into the rock face, I felt excited, but not in that way which involves nervousness.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“Try it! They take you through ditches, over fences and up embankments” Amanda coaxed me. She was trying to entice me to try the trail-riders at an Agur Lake Camp Open House near Summerland BC. The adaptive trail-riders are operated by The Community Recreational Initiatives Society (CRIS) in neighboring Kelowna.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA["With my experience at CRIS, my thoughts regarding people with disabilities is that they are as much a part of society as any able bodied person is and the effort needs to be made by everyone in our community to ensure that they feel included and valued as an individual. Although the needs of every individual may not be possible, an effort needs to be made to make our community accessible and inclusive. Before CRIS, I never really thought about the struggles or challenges people with disabilities can experience everyday in their life."]]></description>
