Wahode is Dakotah for "explore." There are three full-day sessions that offer many ways to discover, grow and have fun. Staff to camper ratio for all three day camp sessions is 1:2. All sessions are staffed with autism specialists. Campers provide their own lunch and transportation. No physical is required to attend day camp. This camp is ideal as a first step toward, or in addition to, attending Camp Hand in Hand.
Registrations for all day camps are filled on a first come, first served basis.
Session I & III are designed for children ages 8 - 14 and held in partnership with the Jewish Community Center at Camp Butwin in Eagan.

Daily sessions will be held 9:15 am - 3:00 pm (note special start time).
Session II is offered in partnership with MacPhail Center for Music. Additional staff include a board certified music therapist and an occupational therapist. Visual picture schedules will be used to integrate music therapy, social interaction, sensory exploration, art, cooking, yoga and movement. Activities, geared for children ages 6 - 12, take place primarily in an indoor setting. Hours are 9:00 am - 3:00 pm.
