Camp Inclusion Program
Blue Lake Camp is pleased to announce our Inclusion Program. This program has been designed to offer children with physical and or developmental disabilities an opportunity to participate in Summer Camp programs. With the support of an inclusion counselor and enthusiastic camp staff, your child can enjoy a wide variety of fun and positive experiences this summer.
Our focus at camp is outdoor science and recreation. Through our programs, campers learn about our natural environment in a way that makes exploring the world inspiring and interactive. Traditional camp activities such as swimming, canoeing, hiking, skit nights, arts and crafts, games and campfires are all part of the fun.
Campers are given time and support to complete tasks that have been broken down and presented into logical sequences. We promote social skills, communication skills and self-help skills. With staff mentors, campers are supported to follow daily routines from group games, to meal times and cabin clean up.
Camp is the perfect place to make new friends and develop important language and social skills. At Blue Lake, campers have the opportunity to experience the joy of being a valued member of a group. We emphasize creativity, imagination and adventure in a safe, fun-filled atmosphere designed to encourage growth and development of self-confidence.
