[nabs-l] Attending A Sumer Camp

[Sophie Trist]

That's great. The lighthouse in Louisiana doesn't sound nearly as 
good. I attended a summer camp there last year. It was not an 
overnight camp, and it focused mainly on recreational activities. 
Even the daily living skills activities were not that 
informative. The sighted volunteers did most of the work (e.g., 
taking things on and off stoves, in and out of ovens, and serving 
the food) while we did the simple tasks like cutting and 
stirring. However, centers like this that don't offer complete 
training serve a purpose. For blind people not functioning at 
full capacity, these types of centers can offer them 
opportunities to learn the simple skills they need.
Best,
Sophie

Two years ago I attended a Summer program at the Lighthouse Of
Central Florida.  For two weeks we stayed overnight in apartments
at the University Of Central Florida.  The Lighthouse Of Central
Florida is a wonderful training center here in Orlando.  I
thought I'd share this information with you.
