2004 BRIGHT Summer Program
June
Program:
The
June program will be held in a summer camp
like setting. The facility has hotel
style rooms with semi private baths as well
as some cabins. All the rooms are
clean with simple furnishings. The
camp features home style meals, an indoor
swimming pool, outdoor activities,
campfires, etc. This will be a great opportunity
for parents of BRIGHT to get together to get
to know each other, and enjoy themselves with
some free time using the respite service
included in the fun package. If you
choose the therapy program the facility
offer excellent features.

submitting to your insurance for

this. Also, if the costs work out to be less
