Sea Stars camp is a weekend experience specially designed for students ages 9 to 18 with developmental disabilities. Paired with their guardian, campers explore Dauphin Island and its habitats. An 8-person team of
experienced educators and counselors (a 2:1 camper to staff ratio) conduct
the SEA STARS program. We are outside for up to two hours
at a time and are moderately physically active. Discovery Hall Programs provides plenty of shade and drinking water for all activities, and we take
time to rest and enjoy the scenery during our explorations. Our goal is to have
safe, hands-on fun while learning about Alabama’s Gulf coast!
Activities include:
- A 2-hour boat trip to Mobile Bay and trawl for fishes
- Beach combing and sandcastle building
- Exploring the salt marsh and
catching marsh animals
- Visiting the Alabama Aquarium
- Catching ghost crabs and exploring the beach at night
- Making some marine-themed arts and crafts
- Having a great time!
