2010 Camp Goals
It is important for us to set attainable goals to impact the camp community during our week of camp and throughout the year. Please review them below and remember them throughout the week at summer camp and at year-round programs.
Through a creatively designed, camper-centered program that embraces cabin life, guided and intentional instruction, exposure to new activities, peer support, and fun, we intend to empower our staff and campers to achieve these goals:
- To provide a fun, safe and exciting camping adventure for all participants regardless of their medical needs
- To recognize and utilize individuals strengths.
- To enhance and foster self-worth, self-esteem and self-confidence.
- To promote growth through self-discovery and expression.
- To develop a sense of independence and interdependence.
- To foster memorable friendships.
- To create a nurturing community of peers facing similar situations.
- To provide the highest quality of medical care that is non-intrusive to camp life.
