Description

This half-day specialized camp is suited for children with physical disabilities who require assistive devices for mobility (i.e., wheelchair, walker, canes). Each morning campers are welcomed with a fun craft followed by active games, sports, play, stretching, outdoor activities and swimming. Community providers will be visiting us throughout the week to introduce different recreation opportunities. The final morning will take place at Storybook Gardens where we will explore some of the activities they offer. 

This program is facilitated and supported by Therapeutic Recreation, Physiotherapy, Therapy Assistants and Volunteers.
