"Fall is for camping, y'all! Sunny fall days, water views, and the perfect spot to build a fire await at RISE Adaptive Sports. 5 ADA-accessible campsites with fire pits, grills, and all the marshmallows you can roast! Bring your tent and let's go! Make your reservations now at riseadaptivesports.org. Who’s in?"

It's official—The flags have come down, and RISE Adaptive Water Park is going into hibernation mode Dock, boats, and all the gear are getting packed away. But for the adventure seekers out there, camping’s still a go, year-round, rain or shine Who’s ready to swap swimsuits for s’mores by the fire?

That's a wrap on RISE Adaptive Water Sports —what a season!

This year’s been a wild ride—literally! From droughts to floods, solar eclipses, heat waves, and storms, we’ve seen it all. But hey, that’s Texas weather for you!

We adapted on the fly—delaying programs for a couple of months and even taking the show on the road (or rather, around the lake) to find the perfect spots!

And the fun is far from over! With camping and gym activities happening year-round and some exciting events and tournaments just around the corner, we’re keeping the momentum strong. Come be a part of the action!

Huge thanks to everyone who joined us for an unforgettable season. Your resilience inspires us every day, and we can’t wait to see you back on the water next season. Stay adaptive, stay awesome!

"What do you do on a perfect fall weekend? Camp, fish, kayak, boat... and throw a birthday bash for a freshly minted 7-year-old! Between the outdoor adventures and the cake, this weekend hit all the right notes. Can't beat celebrating with nature and a side of s'mores! "
