POST: 01/05/2015
Nestled
in the beautiful Berkshire Mountains on Twin Lakes, Salisbury, Connecticut,
“Isola Bella” means Beautiful Island in Italian. Isola Bella was bequeathed to The American
School by the late Ferrari Ward and his wife, Muriel Alvord Ward. Both were members of the ASD Board of
Directors and Mrs. Ward was the first woman to serve on the board. Through this wonderful gift, the American
School became the United States’ first school for the deaf to offer a summer
program for hearing impaired youngsters and is the only camp for deaf children
in Southern New England. Isola Bella is
a scenic island estate that has been turned into a recreational/residential
summer camp for deaf children ranging in age from 6 years to 18 years old. A wide variety of activities are offered
depending on camper’s skill and interest level.
Some of these activities include: archery, arts & crafts, camp
studies, swimming, sailing and canoeing, water skiing, overnight camping,
hiking, team and non-competitive games and a variety of special trips and
projects. The philosophy of the program
is “learning through experience.”
