Thank you for your interest in ADWAS Deaf Summer Camp 2025. My name is Nancy. I am a Children’s Advocate and the Camp Director for our Deaf Challenge Camp this year. With limited options for Deaf kids to have a camp experience with other kids that sign, this camp gives Deaf kids from all over the Pacific Northwest a chance to come together, to be in a ASL signing environment and have fun in the summer!

Our summer camp is stationed here at ADWAS: 8623 Roosevelt Way NE Seattle, WA 98115, but this year we are doing something super exciting; We will be visiting parks throughout the Puget Sound region, exploring different natural wonders, and engaging in a variety of fun and educational activities.

Every day parents drop off their child and sign them in. Camp starts at 9:00 AM. and it ends a 5:00pm. We will provide 2 snacks and lunch, transportation to and from field trips every day and it’s all free!

Our camp is staffed by volunteers that are Deaf, CODA or hearing but fluent in ASL. We do background checks on all camp counselors, and they are all trained by ADWAS. All counselors have background experience with kids and camp. Interpreters will be provided.

Please complete the online registration and sign all waivers and permission slips provided. Happy to answer any questions.

Nancy Edney, Camp Director Nancy@adwas.org
