A Special Camp For Special Kids

Summer Stars is a camp born of the desire to create a safe space for children with special needs and different abilities. It is inclusive of all children, with the promise that, while we cannot provide 1:1 care, the camp will remain small enough to prevent cases of children becoming overwhelmed or overlooked.

We also strive to teach all children important life skills in a fun and engaging environment.

The camp is divided into two three week sessions, each week will repeat the same day by day schedule to provide structure.

We ask that parents provide lunch for their children in order to accommodate dietary restrictions and specifications. A list of the provided snacks and drinks will be sent out to all registered parents to ensure they are safe for your child.

With this camp, our goal is to allow children to safely explore the beauty of Guam, learn important social skills, healthy eating and exercising habits, and how to interact with their peers.
