 The Scituate C.O.R.S.E. Foundation (Community of Resources for Special Education), a non-profit organization, was established in February of 2006 by a group of dedicated parents and educators to raise funds to enhance and provide the highest quality educational experience so that students with special needs can reach their full potential. Through a variety of fundraising events and activities, the Foundation is able to allocate grants for a wide range of supplemental resources that will benefit students, parents and educators within our community. |
C.O.R.S.E. Sponsors Summer Camps This summer the C.O.R.S.E Foundation sponsored a number of very innovative camp experiences for children with special needs. The week of July 7th, C.O.R.S.E., along with Scituate Recreation, sponsored and hosted the Lose the Training Wheels Camp in which 35 children with special needs learned how to ride a two-wheel bike. During the months of June and July, children participated in a six week Therapeutic Horseback Riding Program conducted by Booth Hill Farm; this is the second year this program has been offered. In the month of August, C.O.R.S.E., in collaboration with Scituate Recreation, ran the two week All Stars Recreational Camp. The All Stars Camp provided a fun filled, non competitive environment for children with special needs. We extend our gratitude to all those individuals and organizations that generously donated to the C.O.R.S.E. CAMPaign and made these “once in a lifetime” opportunities a reality for some very special kids! 2nd Annual “Hit the Course for C.O.R.S.E.” Golf Tournament This year’s tournament will be held on Thursday, October 9th at the exclusive Hatherly Country Club in scenic seaside Scituate, Massachusetts.
