25th Annual Tourette Syndrome Camp USA

Camp for boys and girls ages 7-16.

The Tourette Syndrome Camp Organization (TSCO) will host the 25th Annual Tourette Syndrome Camp USA at YMCA Camp Duncan in Ingleside. This year’s camp runs from June 24-30.

The TS camp program is run concurrently with a traditional YMCA camp week. TSCO is not a therapeutic program and there are some limitations in accepting children whose needs are beyond the scope of its design. The focus of the camp’s staff will be to provide general supervision with as much one-on-one mentoring as well as the situation permits.

In addition to providing in-services to all Camp Duncan counselors, TSCO supplements the staff by providing volunteer counselors who have TS, or have experience dealing with TS. Campers must be able to handle routine daily living skills (i.e., dressing, self-hygiene) and have the ability to function within a group setting.
