Can my child attend if he does not fit into one of these special needs categories?
We are offering camps to specific special needs so their primary diagnosis needs to fall into the categy for each day of camp. This is to ensure the programming and volunteers are the best for each group type and the campers are able to similar special needs campers with them. Campers must not be combative and able to cooperative with volunteers leading activities.
What does the schedule look like?
Campers will be split into 3 small groups and rotate through activities until lunch time. After lunch, we will have a interactive group Bible story. The schedule will be very flexible to ensure campers have time to get to activities as well as use the restroom if needed.
