Celebrating Accessibility and Community

We’re thrilled to announce that thanks to the incredible support from the community, the Wheelchairs and Walleyes project successfully completed the ADA-compliant ramp in 2024, providing greater accessibility at Lake Sakakawea! This is a huge step toward making outdoor recreation accessible for everyone. We look forward to expanding this mission, building more inclusive ramps across North Dakota and the entire USA, ensuring that everyone can enjoy our beautiful waterways without barriers. Together, we can make accessibility a reality everywhere!

Sponsors

Wheelchairs & Walleyes believes that it is critical that community based donations are directed towards the project in their own backyard. Businesses, famlies, government entities, and charitable organizations have a greater sense of pride in the project when their contributions go towards the projects themselves, rather than organizational costs. In order for this to be acheived, our select corporate partners play a critical role. Without you, there is no us. Without us, there is no ADA ramp project. Your contribution into our organization is a direct investment into the communities your products and services support, including every one of our projects throughout the country.
