The Family Retreat is a fun-filled weekend for the whole family! Many activities are planned for children with Autism and their siblings, for Autistic adults, and for parents.
A place where you don't have to explain why their child doesn't talk, can't wait in line, or has temper-tantrums. No one stares at you or wonders what's wrong with your child. Our weekend is a place where families come together to laugh and cry. Each year the retreat has a theme. Past year's themes have been, pirates, cowboys, down on the farm and animals. This year's theme was "Mardi Gras!"
Children will rotate in groups between: Swimming, crafts, outdoor play, indoor rock climbing and much more! Our nursery is for children under 5 years old and includes fun activities developed for this age group. Parents and caregivers will have the option to attend presentations and activities such as: Acrylic Canvas Painting and Conoeing / paddle boarding.
In addition, there is plenty of time for family activities with Family Swim, Saturday evening entertainment and much more!
Families get to stay in dorm rooms with their children. Entertainment is provided for Saturday night. Swimming is available all weekend. The ASM Family Retreat is a place where everyone not only knows your name, they also know your children.
Saturday only option is available.
