From your friends at TurtleTalk focusing on creating events for stroke survivors in BC:
The Delta branch is planning a cruise to Alaska "There is life after stroke''
Piggy backing onto existing events will be a great way to bring stroke survivors together without overhead, risk or labour. It is not a sanctioned event, just a simple means of enabling stroke survivors to have fun together, share stories, and create memories.
If you're thinking of a cruise, what better time to go than when you can benefit by the camaraderie and support of other Turtles aboard ship. They may not say it but, often family members are not sure what to do with their Turtles. This is a great opportunity for them as well. It enables them to take part in other activities with the comfort of knowing their Turtle is have fun with other Turtles doing Turtle things at Turtle speed.
