Special Needs Camps/Activites
|
|
City of College Station
|
The challenger sports series is to provide programming throughout the year for children with special needs.
Understanding that these children would have limitations that would probably not allow them to gain the success desired through existing programs, the Parks & Recreation has developed a year around series that is scheduled to include Soccer, Basketball and Bowling. The desire is to provide for those who want to learn basic fundamentals of athletic activities, have fun, improve physical skills, experience success and feel special in a safe and controlled environment.

Most campers have learning disabilities, attention difficulties, hyperactivity, cognitive development, or they are developmentally delayed.
