SUMMARY:Camp Wigwam
DESCRIPTION:August 18 – August 26\nCamp Wigwam\, Waterford\, ME\, United States\n\nView DetailsRegister\n+ Add to Google Calendar+ iCal / Outlook\n\nAhka Lacka Ching! NSSRA is heading back to Camp Wigwam on Bear Lake in Waterford\, Maine for Summer 2026. Campers can enjoy swimming\, tubing\, fishing\, and boating on Bear Lake\, plus scenic views after hiking Hawk Mountain. We’ll also take on the climbing wall\, archery\, and spend evenings around the campfire with s’mores! Offsite\, we’ll watch a baseball game in Portland\, have a karaoke dinner\, and visit town for souvenir shopping—enjoying all Maine has to offer! With over 40 years of experience\, NSSRA is proud to continue this unforgettable adventure at the American Camping Association-accredited Camp Wigwam.\nNew participants must attend an NSSRA overnight trip before the Camp Wigwam registration deadline for readiness assessment. A mandatory meeting for new participants will take place one week before camp. Participants will share cabins with peers; however\, single cabins can be arranged by contacting Patrick Russell at (847) 509-9400 x6823 or prussell@nssra.org before the registration deadline.\nIn July\, NSSRA will email a trip waiver and information packet\, which must be returned with payment. Participants must independently manage daily living skills\, follow scheduled activities\, and function at a 1:4 staff-to-participant ratio. This trip is not recommended for those who tire easily when walking. The fee includes transportation\, meals\, lodging\, and various activities.\nRegistration Deadline: Friday\, May 1\nAge: 18 and up\nMin/Max: 13/20  \nTrip Eligibility\nParticipants must be able to meet general trip expectations for all overnight trips. Specific trip eligibility is listed in the program description. For all trips lasting longer than three days and two nights\, participants must attend an NSSRA overnight trip prior to the registration deadline for the desired trip in order for NSSRA staff to assess the individual’s readiness for the trip. Assessments will be completed at the end of all trips to determine eligibility for future trips.\nGeneral Trip Expectations\nFor NSSRA overnight trips\, participants must be able to:  \nMeet all expectations outlined in the “code of conduct” while participating in group activities.\nFollow all scheduled activities and demonstrate appropriate social skills with peers and staff.\nCarry out daily living activities with or without staff assistance as needed.\nRespectfully share living space with other participants and staff members. \nTrip Housing\nParticipants may be expected to share rooms\, and possibly beds\, with peers of the sam… \nListed by NSSRA. View details / register \n\nAbout this event\nCamp Wigwam is featured on the Project Awaken Get Active calendar as part of inclusive recreation and adaptive sports from the Northern Suburban Special Recreation Association (NSSRA). Project Awaken brings together listings from trusted Chicago-area partners so people with spinal cord injuries\, mobility disabilities\, and visual impairments can find welcoming ways to get active\, connect with others\, and try something new. \nEvents like this typically welcome participants of varying abilities along with their families\, friends\, sighted guides\, and volunteers\, and many are free to attend. If you are new to adaptive sports or recreation\, it helps to reach out to the host organization ahead of time with any access questions\, ask whether specialized equipment is provided\, and bring a companion if that makes you more comfortable. Taking that first step — showing up\, asking\, trying — is what getting active is all about. \nPlease confirm the date\, time\, location\, cost\, and any registration requirements on the official event or organizer page before attending\, as details can change. To find more opportunities\, explore our full events calendar\, browse Get Active grants and resources\, or join the Get Connected peer-support community.
