Access Sports to partner with the American Independence Museum in 2016"

Reflecting its strong commitment to the communities in which it operates, Access Sports has invested $1,000 to support the American Independence Museum in 2016. Monies from Access Sports will be used to help preserve the Museum’s collection as well educate nearly 1,700 kids through its school year programs.

Josh Siegel, MD, founder of Access Sports, said he believes the Museum plays “a critical role in the community.”

“We live in a region that boasts a rich history—and the Museum is charged with protecting it and educating others about how our nation was formed,” he said. “Access Sports is proud to partner with such a culturally significant institution.”

Julie Williams, executive director of the Museum, applauded Access Sports in its ongoing support of a wide number of community-oriented agencies.

“Access has increased their investment in the Museum this year and continues to play a vital role in the greater Seacoast region,” she said. “We are tremendously grateful to Dr. Siegel and cannot express our gratitude enough.”

A leader in innovative orthopaedic care and services for top ranked athletes, kids and adults, Access Sports specializes in the prevention and treatment of disorders, injuries and illness to the muscles, bones and joints. Providing convenient access to a variety of on-site orthopedic products and services, such as Open-MRI, osteoporosis screening and x-ray, Access Sports now welcomes walk-in appointments for established patients at all six of its locations.

Among thousands of items, the Museum’s collection includes an original copy of the Declaration of Independence, and handwritten letters by George Washington. Comprised of the Ladd-Gilman House (c.1721) and Folsom Tavern (c.1775) on more than one acre of landscaped property, the Museum hosts public educational programs and lectures, colonial artisan demonstrations, guided tours, and special events.
