Push America 
Making friends in Florida

Orientation Preview
Orientation offers a chance for team members to interact, learn about people with disabilities and participate in skills assessments, training rides, and safety training to prepare them for the life-changing events ahead.

Included in the training will be American Red Cross CPR and first-aid certification, team building, crew systems training, cycling safety sessions and equipment preparation for the road. The team will also visit with some people with disabilities during orientation and share in some fun activities together. There is no greater way to learn about people with disabilities than sitting down and talking and enjoying each others company.

Family and friends are more than welcome to come down to Miami for the kick-off; however, orientation will be an extremely busy time. It is important that any family or friends planning on coming to Miami understands that orientation is very busy and team members have meetings and training taking up a large portion of time. Most parents take this time to see some of the different sites in Miami. In fact, many team members and their families arrive early to sight-see.

If you have any questions about the kick-off in Miami please contact the director of team events at (704) 504-2400 ext. 137 or by e-mail at teamevents@pushamerica.org.
