Subject: This from the Portland VA
It is with a heavy heart and great sadness that I report the National Veterans Wheelchair Games for 2020 have been canceled. This is out of an abundance of caution regarding the COVID -19 virus and the safety of our Veteran Athletes, staff, and volunteers who would need to come together to make the games a success. All of our hard work was not for not; the National Veterans Wheelchair Games will come to Portland at some point in the future.
