Adaptations: The Central California Adaptive Sports Center Newsletter Issue 4 Newsletter | Page 8

Volunteers are a key part of CCASC’ s success. This past year was CCASC’ s biggest for volunteer turnout. Volunteers showed up in force to help clean up and improve CCASC’ s campsite on Shaver Lake, and assist with the summer fundraiser at Camp Edison. During the winter season, volunteers increased CCASC’ s ability to provide programming at China Peak. Special thanks to volunteers Bill Morse, John & Jean Burress, Mike McDonald, Stacy & Katie Hamilton, Dave & Debbie Wilson, Joe & Julie O’ Keefe, Julie Winter, Chantelle Toscano, and many others for helping us succeed.

Interns from the Department of Recreation Administration at Fresno State also contributed to CCASC over the past four years. Graduating seniors in this program must complete a semester long experiential learning internship. At CCASC, interns gain hands-on experience providing programming to persons with disabilities, and learn how things work“ behind the scenes,” helping to manage logistics, projects, community outreach, and budgets. CCASC looks forward to continuing this partnership.

CCASC welcomes new volunteers for winter and summer programs as well as special events and fundraising. No special skills or experience is necessary; training will be provided.
