The Little Rock Foundation is pleased to announce our annual summer camp for visually impaired and blind children. This year’s camp will take place from August 24th through August 28th, 2009. The camp sessions will run from 9:00 am until 4:00 pm each day and will include a sleepover on Thursday, August 27th.

The Camp will be held on the beautiful grounds of the YMCA Camp Ockanickon in Medford, New Jersey. It will host opportunities for a full camp experience including hiking, boating, fishing, swimming, horseback riding, low ropes course, talent show, camp program crafts and many other camp related activities. Lunch and snack will be provided each day as well as dinner on the evening of the sleepover and breakfast the following morning. The camp will be fully staffed by Camp Ockanickon, The Little Rock Foundation staff members and volunteers.

This camp is being offered for free to all visually impaired and blind children, ages 7 - 14, who are affiliated with a state agency for the visually impaired or blind.
