Behind The Magic: Junior Wheelchair Sports Camp – Pushing Limits – November 21, 2025
For most people, “the happiest place on earth” means Disneyland. But for the kids who attend Cottage Rehabilitation Hospital’s annual Junior Wheelchair Sports Camp, true magic happens somewhere else entirely—on the courts, fields, and pool deck of UC Santa Barbara’s Recreation Center.
Cynthia Muñoz
This week on Pushing Limits, we’re joined by counselors Cynthia Muñoz, who lives with cerebral palsy spastic diplegia, and Brian Rathfelder, who lives with a spinal cord injury. They share what it’s like to mentor kids navigating the same challenges they once faced, the behind-the-scenes hustle of creating a fully adaptive, sport-oriented day camp, and the unforgettable moments that make this community feel like a second family.
Tune in to discover why this one-week camp leaves a lifelong impact on everyone who rolls through its doors.
This program is hosted, edited, and produced by Dominick Trevethan.
