Kingsport Parks and Recreation hosting Inclusive Glow Party

Kingsport Parks and Recreation is hosting an A.S.P.I.R.E. (Adaptive: Sports Programs Inclusive Recreation Experiences) Glow Party next week at the V.O. Dobbins, Sr. Complex (301 Louis Street).

The event will take place from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. on March 7. The glow party is free and open to people of all ages.

Adaptive programs are for people with disabilities or physical limitations and are designed to ensure fair and equal competition among participants.

Glow events are when participants wear neon or white clothes, the lights of a gym are turned off and the black lights are turned on. Everyone then “glows” in the dark while dancing to the latest pop music hits.

Though the event is free, Kingsport Parks and Recreation officials are asking folks to register to know approximately how many people will be showing up.
