SUMMER CAMP
With the First Day of School quickly approaching, we love seeing how our awesome students spent their summers!
Rising Mason Creek Middle School student Christopher Morgan and his mother Tee Morgan started CAM's Vision 3 years ago to create a summer camp experience both sighted and visually imparied students could enjoy.
At the core, the camp focuses on exposing students to things outside of their norm. Blind students are encouraged to tackle sports, climb rock walls, and take trips to places like Jump N Joy, while sighted students participate alongside their visually-impaired peers.
In the words of Christopher, “Everyone gets to do stuff in other people’s shoes. Blind people get to do things they normally don’t get to and sighted kids get to experience what it’s like for blind people.”“In the balance of CAM’s Vision, blind students are the same as everyone else.” said Tee Morgan.
