[quote=Anonymous]Suggest you try DC Parks camps or other camps run by your county. Many of them have a legion of summer volunteers who are mostly college or high school kids who can be a helper to a child with special needs. As long as your child is not eloping or aggressive they should be able to work with him. He may not be able to participate in all activities as these are untrained helpers but they should be able to have staff to keep him safe. Another idea is a summer swim team. They also have lots of volunteers and may be willing to assign him a helper. You could also offer to be on deck at every practice to manage your child. There are always parents who do this even if their child does not have special needs due to fear of the water and things like that. You wouldn't be unusual. [/quote]
