Camp Lakey Gap had a successful first summer with 83 campers attending 5 weeks of camp. Campers came from NC, SC, TN, GA, FL, KY, VA, and MD! Due to increased interest in the program we are expanding in 2011 with 7 weeks of camp, as well as adding a week for adults interested in having a camp experience.

We offer a unique program approach of therapeutic recreation using visually structured programming, 1:1 and 1:2 positive support from well trained college and graduate students, development of independent living skills, and opportunities for engaging in social interaction with peers.

Campers grow emotionally and socially at camp by experiencing social success, being empowered to take leadership roles, successfully trying new things, and being supported in a positive and loving environment. With the support of your camper's counselor they are encouraged to explore the camp environment and try activities like arts and crafts, hiking, outdoor games, swimming, canoeing, music, and much more.

Camp Lakey Gap recognizes that each camper brings their unique point of view to camp. At all of our activities we strive to cater to your camper's individual needs and interests. Whether it is insects, reptiles, outer space, Pokemon, Thomas the Tank Engine, or Star Wars, we find a way to help your camper enjoy camp in their way.
