About Ability Adventures LLC

We are an inclusive community club that offers recreational

experiences for all individuals with and without disabilities.

Our Story

In 2020 the travel and recreational world was affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, and many did not reopen. This affected socialization opportunities especially for those with disabilities who can struggle building social networks without supports. One day founders Deon, Dylan and Wilson had the idea for Ability Adventures LLC with a dream to bring back these recreational outings, trips and camps back for people with and without disabilities.

Core Values

Acceptance, Adventure, Capability, Diversity, Fun, Inclusion, Individuality, Relationships, Resilience and Success.
