A personal relationship.With our limited enrollment Talisman is able to maintain close personal contact with families from the admissions process, throughout the summer and on into the school year. Campers develop meaningful bonds with their counselors and parents are kept informed by weekly phone contact and a written summary at the end of the summer. Many campers build on those relationships by returning year after year, strengthening our community as they grow from it. Location; Our main campus is nestled in the Mountains of Western North Carolina. Talisman's beautiful 140 acre campus sits in the ideal location for a special needs summer camp and adventure semester program. Surrounded by national forests and other natural resources, Talisman is just a short drive from the modern conveniences and medical facilities of the city of Asheville. |
