Featured Story / Testimony

Charles Snead, age 44, is one of two twin brothers, both of whom have disabilities. The twins live with their elderly mother. Brothers, Joseph and Charles do not have access to community activities since no one in the home drives.

Camp Meadowlark operated by The Arc of Central Virginia, is the only opportunity that the brothers have to get out in the community and interact with peers. Camp provides them with a chance to enjoy a variety of recreational activities including arts, crafts, games, swimming, field trips and dancing. Joseph is well known for his moves on the dance floor and won the dancer of the year award at camp. The brothers look forward to attending camp each year.
