Guest guest Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 For those of you looking for a summer program for your person with a disability , check out this North Georgia program. Camp Sparrowood is a section of camp reserved for people with special needs - included with NT campers but with seaprate staff and programs that are often parallel. Lovely new pool and pool house. If you are a member of the UMC, you can receive a discount/scholarship. Respite/family support money is also accepted. > Having trouble viewing this email?
