SAN ANTONIO -- The carousel has chariots for wheelchairs. Braille games decorate side panels on the jungle gym. And table-high sandboxes allow just about any kid to build a castle.

Morgan's Wonderland aims to offer everything a special-needs guest might enjoy at a theme park – while appealing to non-disabled visitors too.

Welcome to last year. They opened a year ago. It's a pretty snazzy place. They're opening a special needs school and are also trying to bring a soccer league to the area too.

Welcome to last year.
Right, I don't live in SA so I wasn't aware of it until now, so I guess it's an irrelevant story. Thanks for your gate-keeping, keep up the good work.

This is a really cool idea, and from what I understand, they have free admission for kids with disabilities and their parents. The soccer league is supposed to be one of the ways to fund the park. Sad thing though is that when my grandmother died, we were moving everything out of her house and my grandfather used to run marathons. He had hundreds of trophies. We tried to donate them to MW and they said that they couldn't accept any trophies because of an agreement with some place to buy any trophies from there. Pretty stupid situation.

I wouldn't bother.

If his fighting skills are anything like his rap skills, I'm not sure Mase would be much help anyway.

Eff me. I didn't even catch that. :lmao
His spelling is worse than ATRAIN's inability to recognize the difference between there, their and they're.
