Dear Mr. Sayer,

Hello, my name is Jim Debus.  You actually spoke with my wife today  
regarding our COTA bus services.  I am a member of the Paralympic Sports  Club of 
Columbus and we are planning an adaptive sports and recreation  event.  I 
wanted to ask if your organization could help us out in any  way--we are in 
search of injured or disabled vets--who are interested in  participating in 
adaptive sports and recreation activities.  
We are  holding it on Saturday, July 16th, from 10a-3p at the Franklin Park 
Adventure  Center, 1755 E. Broad St. 43205. 
The Columbus  Recreation and Parks Dept. and with the help of The Paralytic 
Sports Club of  Columbus, Rick Isbell at the mayor's office, and a grant 
from NPRA, we are  hoping this event can be a success!!  The sports we offer 
are: 
WILL  BE FEATURED AT THE EVENT
high ropes course
boccia
quad  rugby
goalball
wheelchair football/basketball
and a fully accessible  fitness center with specialized trainers. 

other sports we  offer
power soccer
swimming
softball
track and field 

Any assistance you can provide me in  getting some folks together to attend 
this event, or possibly provide  volunteers, would be greatly appreciated.  
I will be speaking at the next  DAV meeting on June 6th to help further 
promote this event.  Thanks for  your time, please come out and join us as 
LUNCH IS PROVIDED!! I look forward  to hearing from you. 
Sincerely, 

James D.  Debus
