"I really like trying new things and pushing my limits," she said."I've never felt comfortable riding down stairs until about two years ago so that was a big improvement."
For Maya Mcleod, it's her second year at camp. She looks forward to the long ride where the group rides for about 15 miles. She's learned how to be safe on her bike.For three-weeks in June, different groups of campers gather at the El Grupo clubhouse and work on their skills. The campers and counselors play icebreaker games, go on long bike rides and eat lunch together.
"And while we're riding places we work on safety and a lot of different skills," Daniel Walker, one of the camp counselors, said."We start our rides, we go to different places like parks or the U of A.""I can really be myself with the counselors and the kids around me," she said.
