"Our mission is to serve the children of military personnel who have
lost their lives on active duty, while defending the United States of America."
What if it says a camp is full, is there anything else I can do?
As you navigate our camp sign-ups and come across any camp that says it is full and you still desire your child to attend that camp, call our office. Especially if your child is new to that camp or any ASC camp, our goal is to give first dibs to the children who have never attended an ASC camp.
