Myrtle Beach


Myrtle Beach State Park



This summer, we are partnering with Myrtle Beach State Park in South Carolina starting July 7th, 2023 to provide individuals with mobility impairments the ability to have immediate access to one of our chairs and our beautiful state park and beaches!


IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR ALL USERS:


Reservations for trackchairs are a first come, first served basis. Just because the chair is there, doesn't mean someone doesn't already have it reserved for the day. Also, even if a reservation is made a head of time, your trackchair reservation doesn't grant you access to the park. Parks can sometimes stop allowing additional cars into the park during peak seasons if the park traffic is too high. Because of this, make sure you arrive early in the day if possible to ensure you can gain entry to the park, especially if you have reserved the trackchair ahead of time.


Step 1: Watch the following video!


The following video gives an in depth tutorial on how to operate one of our chairs as well as troubleshoot any common issues that may arise. Please watch the entire video!

Step 2: Understand the following rules


1. Track chairs have a rougher ride than regular powered wheel chairs. Do not operate if a rough ride may be detrimental to your personal health.

2. The seat belt MUST be worn at ALL times that the trackchair is in motion

3. You are responsible for any damage you may cause to yourself, someone else, the track chair or any state park property.

4. Please be respectful with this chair. It is a free service provided by us to those with mobility impairments. If you tear up the equipment being reckless, this service will cease to exist.

5. Use of this chair should be restricted to areas inside of Myrtle Beach State Park ONLY.

6. This chair is only to be used on designated trails and sidewalks. The only off-roading can be done on the beach, but keep it out of the sand dunes.

7. Monitor the battery level closely to ensure you don't get yourself stranded.

8. This chair is reserved for use on a first come first served basis. We also take reservations, so even if the chair is here, it may still be unavailable.

9. Avoid getting the chair in the water. Puddles and things are fine, but please do not take our chair for a swim in the ocean :)


Most importantly, HAVE FUN!!! Enjoy having your mobility back!

Step 3: Check availability and reserve now!

If a chair is not available for a date you are interested in, please come back and use the link below. This will help us figure out what locations may need an additional chair in the future!

Step 4: Check in with the park office!

This is it! You're good to go. Just take your confirmation message to the park office staff above where this trackchair is being stored. Exchange your drivers license for the chair and go have fun!!!

Step 5: Send us some pictures!

Step 6: Spread the word and donate!

This step is totally optional, but helps us so much! We exist only through the generosity of people and business in our community who donate to our cause. Our goal is to help everyone get off the pavement regardless of their physical ability or financial status. Our chairs are totally free to use. We do however welcome donations to help us maintain our equipment and to continue to grow and help more people!
