Figure 3 Camper who is blind climbs and rappels wall during sports education camp
ASDB has carried on the tradition of sports and recreation/leisure camps by offering Camp Abilities every
summer since 2003. The UA faculty and students worked with Arizona State Museum to develop tactile rug
weavings and tactile graphics and audio descriptions to accompany their extensive Navajo rug exhibit.
Several talented U of A students made the weavings and tactile graphics, prepared a tactile map of the
museum, and recorded state of the art audio descriptions of the exhibit.
These are just some examples of how the university program has grown together and collaboratively
with its community partners and how students and faculty members are being engaged in many activities
aimed at improving educational services of students with VI.
