Hello, I’d like to tell you about my ADHD Summer Enrichment Camp at the Leelanau School on the shores of Lake Michigan near Traverse City. The Introductury program runs from July 18 through July 23. This unique introductory program is intended for students entering grades 5 through 12 and their parents. Each morning, I meet with the parents, while the wonderful teachers at Leelanau meet with the students and help them develop an appreciation of their strengths, as well as some new grasp of skills to promote their education and lives in general. After the morning sessions, students and parents can go enjoy the lovely resort at Leelanau. Last year it was exciting to see how much the parents gained simply by being with other parents of kids who had ADD, and how much the kids gained from learning in a strength-based situation. In just a week it seemed that we accomplished a year’s worth of growth and understanding.
The advanced session at Leelanau runs from July 25 through July 30, 2010 and is for students entering grades 5 through 12 and their parents. This advanced class is for participants who previously attended the introductory camp in 2007, 2008 or 2009 and want t0Â Â learn more about ADHD and deepen their experience from the summer before.
Please note that the information isn’t available at this time on the Leelanau website www.leelanau.org, but for further details you can access the brochure here.
Please let me know the cost of the camp July 18th through 25th. THanks!
are there any other camp dates or areas that offer these enrichments?
Is there a camp for adults with ADD?
My son told me yesterday he is a “Meanderthal” – that he enjoyse meandering through life. Would this camp help him to focus, yet still be the charming thinker that he currently is? He does not necesary believe in AD/HD…..
