Eligibility:
Camp Frog is open to children and teens between the ages of 8 and 17 (having completed 3rd grade but not yet graduated high school) who have a primary diagnosis of epilepsy/seizure disorder. The EAWCP strives to make a camping experience available to all children with epilepsy; however, campers must meet all basic eligibility criteria. This includes but is not limited to independent self care skills such as toileting, bathing, communicating, feeding skills, etc. as well as the skills needed to function independently within an inclusionary setting.
Staff:
Medical staff will be available on-site during the entire weekend of camp to supervise medication administration and any seizure-related medical care required by our campers. Counselors will also be in the cabins and fully trained to provide seizure recognition and first aid, build confidence, and provide guidance to campers in a fun-filled atmosphere.
Session Fee: $515 per camper
Price includes all camp activities, lodging, meals, and a mandatory insurance fee. Financial Assistance is available through the Steve “Froggy” Morris/G. Peter Rockwell Endowment Fund. Partial and full scholarships are available for payment of camp fees. This scholarship application is automatically included in the full registration packet which you will receive after pre-registering your child for camp.
