Orientation for ASCCA Summer Staff is no joke! This week, counselors, program staff, and even the PR interns are learning to transfer campers with physical disabilities into and out of beds, wheelchairs, and other seats. Besides routine, daily practices such as sleeping, dressing, and eating, we are also learning how to properly help campers enjoy different activities.
Yesterday, the entire staff participated in Adventure Training after dinner. Outdoor Adventure Director Nathan Waters and Camp Director Matt Rickman led the training at the high ropes course and zipline. Using what we learned yesterday morning about pivot transfers, we practiced harnessing campers in different situations.
