This video share’s Geni Payne’s philosophy about equestrian programs and Lucy shares what she looks for in [...]Dr. LeBron Paige, UAB Epilepsy Specialist Visits ASCCA
Dr. Paige was instrumental in helping many of our epilepsy campers attend camp this summer. He’s visiting to gain insights on how to increase participation among others, be the other doctors, medical staff, parents and more. We’re grateful for his support of Camp ASCCA.

Ya’ know, most everything Allison’s done in her life has been a first.

Oh, Amber and Kayla and Jonathan were *very* busy today. A large group of campers (throughout the day) chose to conquer the zipline. Conquer it they did. This video takes you through the ropes of guys and girls going up the tower and down the zipline. Yes, the staff got a workout today, but don’t worry. [...]If you were there … how it sounds
Jayla took on the challenge of the Zipline today. All too often, I share the video, but not much of the ambient sound. So, today I thought I’d share just a glimpse of what it is like taking these children up into the tower and then off the Zipline. Just the video and audio … no [...]Camper, CIT, and now Counselor :: Jessica Thorton
When Jessica Thorton first came to camp back when she was only 6 years old, she knew then that she wanted to one day be a counselor.
