Camp Imua Participation

Campers

Camper Registration

Children ages 6-16 with special needs are invited to Camp Imua for a week of play and laughter and activities such as horseback riding, helicopter rides, kayaking, swimming, campfire songs, arts and crafts, poi pounding, talent show, a dance party, and more! Each camper is paired with 2 counselors, who work together to ensure a safe and happy experience.

Counselors

Counselor Application

Volunteers ages 16-22 are invited to act as counselors for the week of Camp Imua. Counselors act as role models as well as care takers for our campers, making sure their needs are met and encouraging campers to try new activities. By modeling inclusion and kindness, counselors encourage campers to interact with their peers and to develop friendships.

Team Leaders

Leadership Application

Each Year we select a dedicated group of adults, 21 and older, to help guide our teen volunteers. Team Leaders meet each morning to go over the details of the day, and are responsible for relaying the plan to 10 counselors and 5 campers that comprise their team. Team Leaders are responsible for supporting the counselors and helping to problem solve, and for checking in with the campers to make sure they are enjoying the many activities and opportunities provided.

Note

* an inclusive experience is one where children with disabilities or developmental concerns interact with their typically developing peers

Friends become Family
