Volunteers are needed to help run the second annual IowAbility Fair next weekend in central Iowa, a free event designed to remind Iowans who have limited mobility how many other abilities they still have. One of the fair’s organizers is Angie Hulsebus (HULSE-ah-bus), who’s been in a wheelchair half her life, following a motor vehicle accident when she was 20. She’s hoping hundreds of Iowans with disabilities will turn out on Saturday, September 30th.

Hulsebus says the event is a one-stop shop for networking, researching and finding new ways to have fun. The fair will feature a vendor area that will offer a host of medical equipment, devices and things like adaptive vehicles, while there will also be a wide array of adaptive sports and recreational activities to sample.

The fair will be held at Easter Seals’ Camp Sunnyside in north Des Moines. At 10:30 that morning, there will be a Walk-N-Roll fundraiser. There’s also a raffle, a shopper’s alley where all business owners have a disability, and a free swap meet.

The event is co-hosted by the Iowa chapter of the United Spinal Association and the Spina Bifida Association of Iowa. The register to attend or to volunteer, visit: https://iowabilityfair.com/
