People with a love of the outdoors but who have mobility issues can now reserve an outdoor wheelchair in Manitowoc County.
Mishicot resident, Roger Vander Logt, is a volunteer for Access Ability Wisconsin.
Vander Logt is assisting in the coordination of checking out this specialized equipment and by doing so is extending a path to outdoor access for those living with physical disabilities.
The all-access wheelchairs are able to go where regular wheelchairs with skinny tires can’t go. It is one of the 23 AAW outdoor chairs available at no cost and does require a refundable $50.00 deposit.
Local residents can reserve the wheelchair and take it to their favorite private or public lands, using the provided enclosed trailer.
