Are you interested in hosting your own "unified" basketball or sports camp but unsure how and where to begin?
HoopCamp's unified program uses sports to educate and inspire people to become agents of change — fostering respect, dignity and advocacy for individuals with intellectual disabilities.
UPDATE 4.7.23: Steven Garrity posted to social media: Hoop.Camp is on the campus of Idaho State University so grateful for their generosity and kindness in hosting us and our amazing athletes with Special and additional needs for so many years. Thank you thank you come join us we will be at Reed gymnasium on the campus from 10 o’clock until 1 o’clock
Scott Goold recalls: Was late 1993 or early 1994, received frantic phone call from Steve. "Have a group of special needs athletes. Need help. You know how to run camps. Will you teach me?"
Didn't sleep much those first years. While Steve and others were in bed, I was up all night at Pacific Office Automation writing schedules, drills, coaching instructions and lessons. Designed the unified format ... we were first in nation. Grabbed a few winks on the floor or couch, and HoopCamp was born! About 30 years old now!
