The Amputee Coalition of America would like to take this opportunity to
inform you about a free fitness and educational event for youth with
limb loss under the age of 18 and their families.

bio-fit, a targeted youth fitness program, will be held on Saturday,
March 29, 2003 in Irving, TX. While the youth rotate through several
fitness and educational activities, such as soccer, ping pong,
basketball & sitting volleyball throughout the day, the adult
participants attend an educational track designed to fit the specific
needs of caregivers of youths with limb differences.

We are inviting families of young amputees to this great event, and
would appreciate your help in informing families who may be interested
about bio-fit. Attendees will have the chance to learn, play, meet
paralympic athletes and become involved in paralympic sports.
