"...I want to come here until I'm 18 and then I want to work here..." - Camper B age 8

It's wild how fast a week can go by, but the memories made at camp will stay with our kids forever!

We saw so many smiles throughout the week - here are just a few that we were able to capture and share.

When living with epilepsy, heading
out can come with concern about having a seizure and
subsequent injury.

Our staff are first aid certified, with additional
seizure-specific training.

Join our programs with a clear mind, knowing that
whether you experience a pickleball break, an allergic
reaction to horses or a severe tonic clonic resulting in
injury, we are ready to help!

We hope to see you this summer!

Summer is here at last! Amidst all the fun that comes with this season, we want to make sure everyone is safe and takes the necessary precautions. For people living with epilepsy dehydration, lack of sleep, missed medications, and excessive heat may increase the risk of a seizure, making self-care even more important.

Small actions such as staying hydrated, using different forms of sun protection, getting consistent sleep, and staying on top of medications can all help ensure a fun summer without a hitch. Don’t forget that bug spray, those critters are in abundance this time around.

Be kind to yourself, listen to your body, and make sure to take advantage of all the fun activities of the season. Whether you’re living with epilepsy or supporting someone who is, a little preparation goes a long way.

Wishing our community a healthy and cool summer. If you would like to learn more about our programs email us at [email protected]
