Deaf Camp June 22-27
2008 Sertoma Deaf Camp invites children ages 8-16 who are deaf, hard of hearing, or have a family member who is deaf or hard of hearing to join us in the beautiful Sauratown Mountains of North Carolina for a week of fun and adventure.

Campers will be accepted on a first come first serve basis as long as space is available. A non-refundable deposit of $50.00 made payable to Atlantic Region Camp Sertoma Committee is required with the initial registration form. A complete camp information packet will be mailed when this registration is received.

Sertoma Deaf Camp is broken up into 3 different programs:

1. Regular Camp for ages 8-10 (Space for 27 boys and 27 girls)

Sertoma Deaf Camp is the result of a partnership between the North Carolina 4-H program and Sertoma Clubs across North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland and Washington D.C. They have joined forces because they have a common goal; for every young person to have the opportunity to have a summer camp experience no matter what the disability may be.
