Camp Concepts: Expressions at George School—Special Needs Camp
Day Camp
July 6 -August 13, 2010
Ages 4-16 Boys and Girls with High Functioning Autism

Expressions at George School- A summer day camp program designed for children ages four to sixteen with High Functioning Autism (HFA), Asperger's Syndrome, Nonverbal Learning Disabilities and PDD-NOS. Expressions at George School is a special place where your child can safely enjoy a fun summer camp experience while improving and practicing his or her social skills through carefully selected interactions with typical peers.

Formed in consultation with professionals in the field and an active parent steering committee, Expressions provides a much needed program for the specific needs of its campers. In addition to a program full of age appropriate games and activities, Expressions will incorporate activities designed to develop skills in the following areas: conversation, team-building, non-verbal communication, anger management, frustration tolerance, friendship making, problem solving, emotional development and opportunities for personal creativity.

Other activities in this camp program will include arts and crafts, music and dance, swimming, acting, computers, nature, team challenge activities (including activities on our low-ropes team challenge course) hiking, stream exploration and more.

Expressions is a six-week camp with the flexibility to choose your weeks. However, because Expressions is a program designed to teach and reinforce prosocial behaviors, we strongly recommend campers attend at least two consecutive weeks in order to provide greater consistency and reinforcement in learning, allow for a smooth transition period, and ultimately achieve the most positive results for each camper.

Each camper receives a free Expressions Camp t-shirt, daily lunch in the full service cafeteria and will enjoy daily swimming in the eight-lane, twenty-five meter indoor pool. Registered nurse is on duty for the duration of the camp to administer medications and oversee camper’s health and safety.
