The “I Can” Challenge a huge success!

On Saturday, July 26th over 800 people joined Luca “Lazylegz” Patuelli for a 2.5 km walk at the Old Port of Montreal. The “I Can” Challenge hosted by ILL-Abilities and Project RAD was long anticipated by many and there was definitely a lot of excitement and energy in the air. Luca and his wonderful team managed to bring together a very diverse crowd and create a team camaraderie with everyone. The “I Can” Challenge event was a great and memorable day from beginning to end. If you would like to have a small taste of the “I Can” Challenge, I invite you to watch his video.
