Town Inclusion 1:1 Support Staff are available to facilitate safe and successful participation in camp programs.
• When choosing a recreation experience, please consider the individual’s needs, and that the recreation integrated setting may not be suitable for all persons with a disability. Health & Safety of participants and staff is paramount, which could result in participants being removed from the program.
