Thanks for having us Easter Seals Alberta! We had a blast being back at Camp Horizon! 🏞️

The AAC Camp Alberta rolled out the red carpet for their 10th annual summer camp! 🏕️🌟 This year’s theme was a 10th Anniversary Red Carpet Gala, and campers truly shined like stars. 🎬✨

Throughout the weekend, they dove into arts & crafts, soared through the high ropes and zipline, tested their aim in archery, and took part in tons of other exciting camp activities!

It was a weekend full of adventure, laughter, connection, and celebration💫👏

AAC Camp 2024 Highlights Part 4/6: Movement, Exploration, & Interaction 🏃‍♀️👩‍🦽🧠

“Through movement, children develop good thinking and communication skills as they explore and interact with their world. Movement also builds self-confidence. Children feel competent, physically and emotionally, when they use their bodies to communicate and solve problems” (“On the Move”, zerotothree.org). Movement and sensory activities are good for the body, mind, heart and soul! Some camper favourites from last summer include water play, digging for treasure in sensory bins, pool noodle sword fights, playing at the ACT Centre’s accessible playground, and exploring the great outdoors!
