Monadnock Outdoors - Adaptive Outdoor Recreation Survey
The purpose of this survey is to identify adaptive outdoor recreation interests in the Monadnock region of New Hampshire to improve access and supports for people with adaptive recreation interests and their caregivers.  Our goal is for community members of all abilities to feel welcome, and have the information they need to get more involved with Monadnock Outdoors. 

What is Adaptive Recreation?
Adaptive recreation, also known as inclusive recreation, supports people with disabilities to participate in recreational activities. It involves modifying equipment, teaching methods, and services to accommodate the interests of participants. 

What is a Gear Library?
A gear library is a free community resource in which community members can borrow gear for their outdoor adventures! Gear can include trekking poles for hiking, camping equipment such as tents, fishing equipment, binoculars, and even kayaks! Monadnock Outdoors currently offers a free Gear Library program through a partnership with the Keene Public Library -- open for use among all Cheshire County community members! Utilizing the gear library is a great way to try something out, save on costs for your next adventure, etc.!

An overview of survey scope and the broader goals of Monadnock Outdoors is provided at the end of this survey. Learn more about this work and ways to get involved by visiting our website: monadnockoutdoors.org
