Alec was our cousin, son, brother, student, and teammate. His smile electrified any room and he inspired everyone he met with his determination. When he passed away unexpectedly in 2011, his parents and friends carried his legacy through Camp ALEC. CampALEC.com
This unique camp is specifically designed for children with physical disabilities whose primary communication mode is AAC (augmentative and alternative communication). Camp ALEC is a week of learning together with adult educators and campers under the direction of Dr. Karen Erickson and Dr. David Koppenhaver. Campers spend 3 hours daily in literacy activities in a 1:1 setting. The rest of the day campers enjoy a typical camp experience which can include rock wall climbing, swimming, talent shows, camp songs, campfires…..while campers are enjoying camp experiences, the adult educators are in the classroom receiving further training.
Rest assured that by donating just a small amount of money to this camp, you are giving the Bride and Groom a very precious gift.
