DAPHNE, Ala. – Members from the Bayside Academy soccer team visited Camp Alabama’s Special Camp for Children and Adults (ASCCA) in July.
The group, accompanied by head coach Josh Montgomery, spent two days learning about Camp ASCCA and its mission as well as interacting with campers and staff members. The visit began with Allison Wetherbee, Camp ASCCA’s Director of Community Relations, along with Camp Director Matt Rickman, speaking to the ladies about topics surrounding disability awareness.
The teammates then got to join various camper groups to participate in activities and also to see first-hand, what Camp ASCCA means to so many people with disabilities that visit each year.
Camp ASCCA has been a nationally recognized leader in therapeutic recreation and is known throughout the world for its superior quality services. Providing camping experiences for children and adults with disabilities, Camp ASCCA is open year-round. Within its barrier-free environment, Camp ASCCA offers 230 wooded acres on the shores of beautiful Lake Martin in Alabama. Camp ASCCA serves an average of 7,000 people annually.
