Notes

Each summer the National Ability Center offers camps packed with fun, adventure and activities that will challenge your camper to discover his/her abilities, while making friendships to last a lifetime. These activities encourage campers to make friends, build social skills, strengthen physical agility and develop cognitive abilities while having more fun than they've ever had before. Our staff members are chosen for their experience, creativity and enthusiasm for working with children and adults. We are certain that your camper's summer will be filled with priceless memories and experiences.
