Join us for a camp specially designed for teens with special needs. Our program, in partnership with M-NCPPC, provides activities including games, challenge courses, outdoor environmental education, woodland/stream ecology, arts and crafts. The staff to participant ratio is 1:4 to allow campers independence for developing social skills and building confidence. It also explores each person's ecological footprint and climate change. Program activities will be held at different locations throughout Prince George's County, including the William S. Schmidt Outdoor Education Center.
PGCPS students aged 13-21 with special needs can apply.
The link to apply can be found on the Maryland-National Capital Park & Planning Commission's website: Parks Direct: Pick. Play. Grow.
