Partners for Clarkston's Kids
SCAMP
Clarkston SCAMP
Clarkston SCAMP is a five-week summer day camp in Clarkston, Michigan developed and designed for special needs children and young adults. The camp is more than just an exciting place for the SCAMPers; this program provides a growing and learning opportunity for both the young adults hired to be aides for the SCAMPers, as well as the volunteers. It provides the parents of the SCAMPers the calming effect of knowing that their child is in a safe haven and having a good time that they might not be able to experience any other way.
All this is made possible by the hard work and dedication of the board members of the North Oakland SCAMP Funding Corporation and generous donations of the people, like you, who have come to know, appreciate, and love the efforts of SCAMP.
Fundraisers held throughout the year help supplement the cost of the program.

Clarkston for Life
We're Stronger Together
Clarkston for Life is a community well-being initiative focused on the social, emotional, and physical health of Clarkston’s children, adults, and older residents, with an understanding that well-being is the key to positive life outcomes.
Over the next five years (and beyond), Clarkston will become a model of community well-being as our residents grow in their knowledge and understanding of the research behind achieving wellness.
Clarkston for Life is a collaborative effort created by Clarkston Community Schools, area businesses, health care professionals, counselors and wellness experts. The “red thread” in the Clarkston for Life logo is meaningful. In many cultures, a red thread is a metaphor for uniting and building connections. It is suggested once a person enters our lives and makes an impact, the connection lasts a lifetime.
