Camp Brochure 2008
Move, Think, Create, and Communicate is designed to fill the gap created when Extended School Year (ESY) programs finish and there is a break before the new school year. Our campers enjoy a safe, fun camp environment that includes the following:
- Visual supports that enhance language comprehension and prediction
- Sensory-based activities that enhance a camper’s ability to take advantage of language and communication opportunities
- Relaxation techniques that enhance self-regulation
- Daily living routines are incorporated into camp activities as appropriate
- Staff and program content support play skills, social skills and participation in group activities
- Camp facilities (such as the pool and nature trails) offer gross motor activities that satisfy sensory needs and encourage communication
 
Move, Think, Create and Communicate has the necessary elements, including a low camper-to-counselor ratio and trained, highly skilled staff, to offer children with ASD a supportive educational camp experience.
