We are once again recruiting for volunteer camp counselors in Alaska. In past years, we have received TVI's and future TVI's from all over the nation, and hope we can find great help once again. Please feel free to post this to any university billboards or listserves that you feel would be appropriate. This has been a great network to help us get the word out. Hello! My name is Jacinda Danner and I am the Vision Specialist for Camp Abilities Alaska. I am searching for volunteers for our week-long developmental sports camp in Wasilla, Alaska. This year's dates are July 7-15th, 2008. Camp Abilities Alaska is a developmental sports camp for youth who are visually impaired, blind or deafblind. Activities include hiking, swimming, beep baseball, goalball, track and field, kayaking, and archery. We are looking for current and future teachers of the visually impaired, adapted physical educators, special education majors, and anyone with interest in working with youth who want a great week-long learning opportunity as a camp counselor. Camp is held at a lodge with cabins, a small lake and great Alaskan views. The volunteers will learn how to teach youth who have a visual impairment how to participate in sports and recreation and get to know some great people. Some colleges have used this experience as practicum hours toward a degree in teaching those with visual impairments, adapted physical education or other related fields. Please visit the website: www.campabilitiesalaska.org for more information. This can be the excuse you have always wanted to visit this great state! I hope to hear from you soon!
