Katie’s Story
Katie is an outdoors-loving teen who was ready to try her first overnight camping experience. Camp Sno-Mo, our summer camp for youth and adults with disabilities, promised her a true camping adventure — and reassured her mom, Carrie, that she would be well cared for every step of the way. With a one-on-one counselor by her side, Katie hiked, swam, rode horses, made crafts, and even caught fish in the camp’s annual derby.
“She felt comfortable. She felt confident. She felt grown up,” Carrie shared. “Her support person never made her feel like she couldn’t do something. Even Katie expressed that it was a great experience.”
For Carrie, the experience meant more than just a week of fun: “Camp Sno-Mo is obviously there for the campers, but I found that they really wrap their arms around the entire family, too.”
