Talisman Summer Camp
Biography
Summer Camps for Kids with Aspergers, Autism and ADHD
ARE YOU READY FOR AN AMAZING SUMMER?? Talisman Summer Camp is here to help! We provide specialized camp experiences for young people ages 6 to 22 with autism spectrum disorders, ADHD and/or other learning differences. Since 1980, our ACA-accredited ADHD, autism and Aspergers summer camp programs have been delivering unique alternatives to ordinary summer camps. Our progressive adventure programs help our campers build success while increasing social skills, a sense of personal responsibility, confidence, and a more positive self-image.
What makes our camp so unique and successful? We have over four decades of experience providing remarkable summers, employing highly trained and caring staff, and planning out phenomenal activities for our young campers. A typical day may include enjoying a wholesome home-cooked breakfast, engaging in peer group activities, completing a nature walk in the beautiful North Carolina mountains, jumping off an inflatable into the camp lake, kayaking down gorgeous local rivers, having a conversation with a peer who understands your world, laughing with friends around a campfire, pitching in to clean up after evening meal, feeling pride when my bunkmates and I win a camp contest, or enjoying some of the most restful sleep after a long day of activities in the fresh mountain air.
