2023 iCan Swim (Topeka, KS)

iCan Swim was held in Topeka, KS in July 2023. Throughout this five-day program, instructors with the assistance of volunteers taught 30 individuals with disabilities the foundation for safely enjoying an aquatic environment and promoting as much independent movement in the water as possible. iCan Swim is not aquatic therapy, rather a program to enjoy the water as a leisure recreational activity.
Hosted by Capper Foundation, iCan Swim was generously held in partnership this year with the Kansas State Treasurer’s Office, KBS Constructors, Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation, American Tax Service, WIBW-TV, Hotel Topeka at City Center, Kansas Gas Service, Home Depot, T-Shirts, Etc., Glenda Cafer, Morris Laing Law Firm, Mize CPAs, Reser’s Fine Foods, and Hog Wild Pit Bar-B-Q, to make this program a success.
iCan Swim, a program of the nationally recognized nonprofit organization, iCan Shine, provides quality learning opportunities in recreational activities for individuals with disabilities. By creating an environment where each person is empowered to maximize their individual abilities, everyone can shine.
