Skateboarding Clinic

Open to All Towns

Program is FULL, please email programregistration@corsefoundation.org to be placed on wait list

Ages 8-15

Our Skateboarding Clinic is a 4 day summer program that will introduce and/or teach basic skills. This is an integrated program for those with and without special needs, who would prefer a less competitive atmosphere. Skateboarding stimulates focus, hand-eye coordination, and offers an individual sport that children can learn at their own pace but also be social with peers.

This particular summer, for the safety or your child and due to COVID-19 minimum requirements for health guidelines for our recreational programs and staffing configurations, we will need to set special parameters for participants: the child participant must be independently ambulatory and mobile, have basic daily living skills for feeding, toileting and changing of clothes, and have the abilities to understand and follow directions, be able to request assistance and have basic verbal skills to communicate with staff and peers.   Masks will be required at all camps so all children will be expected to wear them for the duration of the session.  Parent drop off and pick up only – parents are not allowed to remain on site.  We will return to our original parameters below once COVID restrictions are lifted.  

Participants would bring their own skateboards (parents can buy from a toy store or come into Technical Skate store to pick out their own deck design). A bike helmet and elbow and wrist guards are required.   

 Monday-Thursday August 3-August 6   8:00-10:00am

 Fee $70

Location: Scituate High School Skate Park

The CORSE Foundation (Community of Resources for Special Education) was established by a group of dedicated parents and educators to raise funds to provide high quality and affordable programming, training and resources that will benefit children with special needs (ages 3-22), their families and educators throughout South Shore Massachusetts.  CORSE has designed an innovative model within a blended framework of integrated and specialized social, academic, recreation, therapeutic and work-skills development programs so children with special needs can reach their full potential.  Our variety of programs are staffed appropriately through customized staffing ratios and special education expertise so ALL children, those with and without special needs, can successfully participate together within their community.  

For 2019-20, these programs have been generously supported by grant funding received from the Grace E. Brooks Trust, Evan Henry Foundation, Edwin Phillips Foundation, South Shore Playhouse Associates, Rockland Trust Charitable Foundation as well as our community fundraising supporters.
