BEFORE ARRIVING
CCASC Registration: CCASC provides outdoor adventures for persons with disabilities. All persons with disabilities must be registered in order to participate: https://www.centralcaladaptive.org/registration
Additionally, family members and caregivers are encouraged to participate. They do not need to submit a registration packet, however all participating persons must complete and submit our online waivers: https://www.waiverfile.com/b/CentralCaliforniaAdaptiveSport1
In advance of your scheduled program, please do the following:
-
Complete our participant information questionnaire online by following this link. This will provide us with important information in advance of your visit with us. You only need to fill this form out once for your group.
-
Review our lunch menu and select your lunch online by following this link. (Please fill out this form once for every person in your group.)
-
Review our checklist of “suggested personal items" for day programs.
You will also receive a program agenda containing the activities planned for the day. Activity periods are conducted from 9:00a-12:00 noon and 1:00p-3:30p.
AT OUR OFFICE
When and Where to Meet: The meet-up time for our day programs is 9:00 am at our new office located at 40885 Shaver Forest Rd, Shaver Lake, CA 93664. Please be on time or make other arrangements in advance. Call (559) 593-2504.
The Road to Camp: This is where the adventure begins. The road to camp from our main office is about a 20 minute ride on an improved dirt road that has enough “rough spots” to require high clearance vehicles only. Standard cars and vans do not meet that requirement. If you have an SUV, such as a Subaru Outback or a pick-up truck, you’ll do just fine. We provide transportation to the site in our vehicles. We have a high clearance van with plenty of passenger and cargo space (including wheelchair lockdowns), as well as trucks to transport our guests. Please let us know in advance if you would like a ride. Personal vehicles may be parked at our office. This is a private road with a locked gate and no travel is allowed on the road without a CCASC escort.
AT CAMP
Staff Assistance: Our goal is to ensure that everyone has a safe, fun, and memorable experience during their visit. Staff are available at all times to assist our persons in wheelchairs and to help with transfers to and from our activity equipment.
Accessibility: For wheelchair users, we do have paver pathways for access to most (not all) areas of the site. A pathway is also provided to the beach, and we have “sand riders” for mobility in the sand. We also have a 4WD side-by-side vehicle for transportation to areas outside the camp.
Water and Electricity: Water for drinking and a handwashing station is available. There is no electricity at the site.
Restrooms: Restrooms are the portable type, both ADA and standard, and are kept VERY clean and tidy. Paver pathways are available to the restrooms.
Lunch: We provide deli lunches at noon for our participants and their family members/caregivers. A menu to select fromwill be provided prior to the program.
Activity Equipment: All recreation equipment used during activity sessions is provided by the Adaptive Center.
