This is the last chance to get registered for Empowerment Camp 2018! Online registration closes on Wednesday, May 30th. Don’t let your child miss out on the many benefits camp provides, including the mastery of new independence skills, enhancement of self-esteem, building of friendships, opportunities for leadership, and of course, respite for parents!
Camp counselors provide personal assistance at the appropriate level for each camper, while helping them connect with others. To manage medications, and assist with bowel and bladder programs, nurses are on site for the entire weekend.
For the first time, we are excited to include siblings at Empowerment Camp! 10 – 20-year old siblings will enjoy the same cabin accommodations and activities as those with spina bifida, including archery, zip-lining, s’mores at the campfire, games, crafts and more. In addition, we will have programming created exclusively for siblings.
The value of a weekend at Empowerment Camp is $400. We are grateful to the Spaulding Foundation for sponsoring Empowerment Camp this year and keeping it affordable for families. Due to their generosity, we are also able to offer some fun extras, like camp t-shirts, bucket hats, backpacks, and water bottles to campers this year!
The cost to attend is:
-$50 for a camper with spina bifida
-$50 for the first sibling
-$100 for each additional sibling
-$50 for the first sibling
-$100 for each additional sibling
