South Florida’s Annual Boating and Beach Bash for People with Disabilities celebrated its 5th Anniversary on March 16, 2013. The Bash has grown to become the largest, free, fun-day in America for children, adults and
Purple Heart recipients with physical and/or intellectual challenges, and their caregivers. It is held in the tropical setting of Boca Raton, Florida’s famed Spanish River Park. The highlight of the event is the opportunity to enjoy a boat ride aboard a flotilla of private yachts along the Intracoastal Waterway. All boats are donated by members of Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club in Boca Raton. The Bash is completely organized and run by community volunteers and is funded through private donations and sponsorship. Below are some photos of the event.
