(c)TBAF“Camp Gonzo” is a summer camp program that gives kids with disabilities the opportunity to have the same camp experiences that other children have. Clay Aiken, a runner-up on American Idol from Raleigh, was a camp counselor before he participated in the contest. According to his foundation, he noticed children with special needs were often unable to participate in summer camp programs often because of the lack of staff members trained to work with children with disabilities. That led Aiken to form the Bubel/Aiken Foundation to bridge the gap between young people with and without disabilities.
Children will be able to participate in swimming, arts and crafts, community service, physical fitness and more at the camp.
