SPORTS PLUS is pleased to invite you to join us for the fun and excitement of our tenth annual summer camp. Our camp will feature a variety of sports, fitness, and teamwork activities and games that you have come to know and enjoy in our sports programs. We will combine them with additional sports, dance, music, art, yoga and science activities. On Fridays, there will be a field trip component. Most of all we will have fun while using sports, play, social activities and the arts to learn things that have benefits far beyond our summer camp program.
SPORTS PLUS is a non-profit organization that offers uniquely structured coed sports, swim and training programs for verbal participants able to follow simple directions between the ages of 5 and 22 with mild to moderate autistic spectrum disorders, ADD/ADHD and other developmental disabilities.
Our summer camp will be small and personal. We know your children and they know us. The campers feel comfortable and we work hard to help them to learn, improve their sports and social skills and most importantly have fun! Class sizes do not exceed 12 children. Our camper to paid staff ratio will be no higher than 3 to 1. Numerous experienced volunteers will also be present to assist our paid staff. Many of our Sports Plus coaches will be at all sessions along with special education professionals and experts in other fields. Campers will be placed in age and skill appropriate peer groups.
Our sports activities will include many of those that you have come to know from our highly successful sports and swim programs and others such as martial arts, yoga, fitness training and volleyball. We will also spend time discussing vocabulary, rules and strategy of each game and good sportsmanship. We will also feature our very popular art, yoga and dance segments. A lunch break and supervised outdoor free play will also be provided each day. We will have exclusive use of the gym and classrooms during our entire camp time.
As always, Camp Sports Plus will feature unique skill development techniques, highly trained coaches, special education professionals, consistent encouragement, and positive reinforcement. Fun, teamwork, social skills and sportsmanship are stressed at all classes. Participation of typically developing siblings in our camp is encouraged to allow siblings to play together and act as role models.
Our camp will be held at the Seven Locks Elementary School, 9500 Seven Locks Road, Bethesda, MD 20817. Camp begins June 17 and class space is limited, so you are encouraged to register immediately. Preference will be given to registrations post marked by April 1.
