GUESS WHAT?!?
.
We have some exciting happenings on the horizon. Our dear friends with Amp 1 might not be able to physically see each other right now, but the ball never stops bouncing for the Amp1 Basketball Team.
.
These guys recently contacted us and wanted to collaborate by doing something fun and staying connected through their passion - basketball. On March 27 @ 2:00 - 3:00PM EST, you'll have a chance to get to know the team a little bit and then go through some basketball drills with each player.
.
We’re honored to be a part of this experience with them and can’t wait to see you there!! All you need is a basketball and if you don’t have one, no problem!! The Amp1 guys have generously offered to send a basketball to those who don’t have one.

Today was full of fun, interesting activities!!
.
We started this Friday off learning about prosthetic fabrication with Josh, who demonstrated how a socket is laminated.
.
Then we spent some quality time with some of the Amp1 team members. Thank you so much for taking the time to talk to us and provide some solid advice. You’re a part of the AAC family now 🤗.
.
We then relaxed and had fun drawing some colorful mosaics - with chalk, markers, paint, and more.
.
And we finished the day with some good ol’ Candy Top Chef - Family Edition!! It was great seeing our campers/counselors loved ones joining in and the competition was fierce!! The theme was ‘your favorite activity at camp’. And the secret ingredient was...toothpaste!
.
For not being all together at camp, this day was the best substitute we could’ve imagined. Thank you all that made it truly special. 💙

THURSDAY
-
On this day, we load up the kids and drive ~45 minutes to Waynesville, NC where Waynesville Parks & Recreation so graciously let’s us take over their facility.
-
The day is filled with various activities that the campers rotate through. These activities include:
-
•Basketball- for years now Amp 1 players have joined us and shown the campers some moves. Thank you to Freedom Innovations and Kimberly Kotch Dell for always making this happen. And special shout out to Steven Anthony Mosqueda who’s been coming a few years now!!
-
•Yoga- Always a relaxing way to briefly unwind from all the other wild activities. And this year we had a group yoga session at the very end of the day, which was much needed after an intense few rounds of dodgeball (see 2nd to last pic 😂🧘)
-
•Pool time- Right before lunch we get to cool off and swim in the big indoor pool.
-
•Adaptive bikes- Huge thank you to AMBUCS for providing a variety of adaptive bikes for the kids/counselors to try out and see what works best for them. Always a hit!!
-
•Disc Golf- One of our own AAC fam members, Mike Durco always represents the disc golf game and brings all his gear to show campers the tricks of the trade.
-
•Dodge Ball- The MAIN EVENT. Campers vs. Counselors. It gets intense, there’s no mercy, and both teams plan on dominating each year.
And we have so much fun.
-
A day jam-packed full of activities and endless fun. We’ll try to measure up today during virtual camp. The fort building was already a huge hit! Can’t wait for the DELICIOUS cooking demo with . Followed by Camp Olympics Games, and Teen Talk. Looking forward to seeing you there 🤗💙 @ Waynesville Parks & Recreation
