The program is designed to provide assistance and accommodations for individuals with cognitive or physical differences, with no experience necessary. The program will include bi-weekly adaptive climbing sessions on every other Monday during the semester. Participation in the weekly climbing sessions is free for volunteers, UMaine Campus Recreation members, and students; $8 for nonmembers. Event registration is required and available on the Adaptive Outdoor Education Center website.
