Projects

Hoy
The person in charge of the activity needs to give each player a Hoy Game Sheet and 9 or 13 counters or chips for them to mark the cards on their sheet.
The dealer then takes their pack of cards and turns a card over one at a time calling that card out to the group
If any player has that card on their Hoy Sheet they put a marker on that card.
The game continues until a player gets all of their cards on their hoy game sheet marked, when they do they call hoy.

Indoor Bowls
The game can be played in singles, doubles, triples and there are also four player games. Its purpose is this: you must aim your bowling ball as near to the white ball (called the jack) as you can.

Disability Arts Group
Art is something we do. Art is an expression of our thoughts, emotions, intuitions, and desires, but it is even more personal than that: it's about sharing the way we experience the world, which for many is an extension of personality. ... Beauty is rather a measure of affect, a measure of emotion.
