Coach Mark Beckham has spent his life lifting others up — now it’s our turn to lift him.

Mark was recently diagnosed with adult-onset congenital Muscular Dystrophy, a condition that has gradually taken away his mobility and now requires him to use a wheelchair. Yet through it all, he remains the same encouraging, positive, and selfless person who has touched so many lives in our community.

The pool has always been a source of strength and freedom for Mark — a place where he can move, exercise, and feel whole again. But without accessibility equipment, that freedom has been out of reach.

Our community HOA isn’t required to provide a lift since this is private property. However, they’ve graciously agreed to allow a handicapped pool lift if we can raise the funds ourselves — covering the lift, protective cover, and professional installation.

We’re asking for your help to raise $12,000 to make this possible.

This lift won’t just serve Mark — it will open the pool to others in The Colony who live with mobility challenges, creating a lasting impact for years to come.

Every donation, big or small, brings us closer to helping Coach Mark regain his independence, continue his therapy, and stay connected to the water that keeps his spirit strong.

Thank you for showing up for him — and for helping make The Colony pool a place of inclusion, healing, and hope.
