Due to insurance guidelines, the following criteria must be met for families to participate at our camp:
• Only parents/guardians of an individual affected by autism and their immediate families may attend (i.e. a
child affected by autism, their parents or guardian and their siblings)
• Only persons with private health insurance coverage will be allowed to attend. Any accidental injuries, which
may require treatment, will be handled by the family’s private insurance. NO EXCEPTIONS
• Families may bring along one trained aide to assist them for respite. That person must be registered as the
child’s care provider and insured by a contracted agency, or have private medical insurance, and included in
the family of four or $30 additional.
The cabins will BE SHARED, so we urge TWO families to register together or state who you
would like to bunk with. For those families that are unable to do so, you will be paired with a
compatible family as space allows. We will limit the amount of families to allow for a comfortable
environment. The cabins will not allow total privacy, however there are four small rooms with two
sets of bunk beds in each. There is also a private ceramic tiled bathroom at the end of each cabin
that has 2 large shower stalls and 3 lavatory stalls along with several counter top sinks.
Planned activities include fishing, paddle boats, canoeing, swimming, camp fire, movies,
crafts, Talent Show and more. Wall climbing & Zip line is extra $15 – waiver will be mailed.
Please complete the application and mail it to the P.O. Box by July 20, 2015.
You will be contacted in late July for all our final details. Please call the Affiliate voice mail with
any questions. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN SCHOLARSHIP, CALL 586-445-4915
