Adventure Camp, a week-long day camp for children ages 6-10 introduces kids to a variety of traditional outdoor camp experiences, but specifically focuses on particular needs & considerations for youth with vision impairment. Campers are taught outdoor and recreational skills to complement their knowledge of the natural world. Kids will experience cookouts, creative arts, archery, hiking, swimming, and horseback riding.  Campers will have the opportunity to practice functional, social, mobility, and independent living skills while forming friendships and having fun!  Youth learn fundamental skills that help them learn, play and grow in a camp atmosphere.  Camp helps kids learn independence and social skills to develop into successful adults.
