Sharing the Vision for All to Stand Up And Play
The Stand Up and Play Foundation was formed to help wheelchair users and other people with impaired mobility have the opportunity to stand up and participate in sporting, artistic and other daily events.
The Stand Up and Play Foundation is a volunteer-based 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that is changing the lives of wheelchair users and other individuals with disabilities with a remarkable piece of equipment – the Paramobile – that allows them to stand up and play sports and engage in everyday activities. We provide the unique combination of the Paramobile, adaptive equipment and well trained volunteers to give users unimagined levels of freedom and independence.
Here at Candlewood, We are the second golf course in the State of Connecticut to acquire an on site Paramobile Golf Cart. Currently we have 3 – 2 of which are Candlewoods and 1 which is from “national” that is used here and is available for demos/off site tours. We actively promote Golf As Therapy through our chapter “Candlewood Valley CC Chapter of The Stand Up And Play Foundation.”
