Disabled Games
“ Aha! set a new benchmark for opening ceremonies” is how the organizers
of the Games described our work. An outdoor ceremony with dancers,
original music, pyrotechniques, parades, and marching bands blew the
spectators and athletes away. The opening ceremonies set the tone
for the entire, exciting competition.
