Special Needs Kids Day at the Lake

Special Needs Kids Day at the Lake: Connecting Communities

At Special Needs Kids Day at the Lake, we strive to bring people together and create a sense of belonging and connection within our communities. We are a nonprofit organization committed to making a positive impact through Special Needs Kids Day, on Glade Marina at Lake Altoona.

Special Needs Kids Day is a fun filled day of friendship, generosity and fellowship that was created as a way to show our love and support of our Special Needs Community. This event was created by Randy West, and is complete with food, games, give aways and a boat parade. During the parade, special needs participants and their guests will be loaded on boats and paraded around the lake. This event is guaranteed to generate plenty of smiles, laughter and happiness among all of those involved.

The event is FREE to our Special Needs Community and would not be possible without the generosity of our wonderful boat captains, volunteers, sponsors and guests.

From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU for supporting us in this journey.

Where it all began...

Randy West embarked on this journey after a dream he had. In this dream a special needs child was waving to me from a boat, on the lake. It spoke so strongly to me, I felt I needed to act on it and create something big, or in hopes to be something really big." We wanted to have a special day for kids to have fun out on the lake, and so in 2018 Special Needs Kids Day was created.

Our Mission

At Special Needs Kids Day on the lake, everyone is created equal. Our mission is to allow every participant, regardless of abilities, an opportunity to experience a fun filled day on the water at no cost. Participants will also get the opportunity to participate in games, face painting, food and fun.
