Rollin’ Down the River (Ages 19+)

Summer is not over yet! We’re tying our tubes together and traveling down the Elkhorn River. With volunteer tour guides to help navigate the route and the river setting the pace, you’ll spend the day with a smile on your face. Floating coolers will be available to keep your refreshments cold. Life jackets will be provided, but swimming skills are also required. If we get stuck or have to make a turn, you may have to get out of your tube to push or pull the floats. This isn’t something you can do in Omaha, but we’re conveniently providing transportation from Outlook to Tubing and Adventures, and back. We must adhere to our morning departure time, but our return time may vary slightly depending on the river conditions for that day. So pack your sunscreen, something to snack on, something to sip on, and let’s send off the summer season under the sun!

Rides will be provided from Outlook Nebraska to Tubing and Adventures and back after the float is over for participants with vision loss. Friends and/or family members are welcome to join, but must provide their own ride and cover the cost of their tube rental ($30). Exceptions will be made for people willing to help transport other participants unable to drive.

Please contact Megan for guest registration details at 402-350-4121 or mmackie@outlooken.org.

Group Exercise Classes (now thru August)

Lose the excuses and gain strength with our adaptive group exercise classes. The group environment creates both accountability and support. Classes are led by a certified exercise science instructor who is also visually impaired. Exercises are described verbally instead of shown visually, and encouraging suggestions will help ensure you’re performing the moves correctly. Workouts can also be adapted to fitness level, age, and goals. Let us help you set your fitness goals and make your workout what you want it to be, whether that’s stretching, strength building, or simply getting some movement in.

Classes are offered:
Tuesdays 2 – 2:45 p.m.
Wednesdays 2 – 2:45 p.m.
Thursdays 2 – 2:45 p.m.

Registration includes three classes a week from now through the end of August, but feel free to choose to attend whichever days work best with your schedule.

Tandem Bike Club – Field Club Trail (Ages 18+)

The temperatures might be dropping, but we’re not stopping our tandem bike rides yet! This ride is on the tree covered Field Club Trail, which should be pretty this time of year. This is a fun ride with a mixed route through neighborhoods and trails with some hills thrown in for a little extra challenge.

This is a 10-mile ride at your own pace, making it perfect for avid bikers and first timers alike. Outlook provides bikes, helmets, and volunteer bike partners/captains, or you are welcome to bring your own bike or biking partner. We have both standard and recumbent bikes available. A standard tandem is designed like a typical upright bike, but it has 2 seats. A recumbent has 2 seats, like a chair, and 3 wheels. This is a great style of bike for new bikers or bikers with balance or mobility challenges.
