Youth Adaptive and Inclusive

NCPRD is dedicated to providing adaptive and inclusive recreation programs for district residents who have developmental, learning, or physical disabilities. Our offerings create opportunities for individuals of varying abilities to engage in recreational and enrichment activities that enhance their quality of life. We aim to support the unique needs of each individual by delivering accessible recreation experiences in safe and supportive environments.

Sensory Friendly Swim

Sensory Friendly Swim is a welcoming aquatic environment for swimmers seeking reduced noise, limited lighting and fewer swimmers in a flat water setting. Swimmers are required to have a responsible supervisor join them in the water. The swim includes waterslides, dive well (no diving board), kiddie pool, hot tub (for 18+) and wave pool (no waves). Two quiet rooms are available as calm spaces. To reduce the noise level there will be no waves, interactive fountains or whistles used.

Sports Programs

NCPRD’s Shooting Stars Basketball, Rising Stars Soccer, Adaptive and Inclusive Dance and Cheer Stars, and Flag Football programs are designed for individuals with disabilities and additional needs. Participants enjoy social time and skill building in a supportive and positive environment.
