About KODAWest Camp: Hearing kids of deaf adults (KODAs) of ages 8 thru 17 will enjoy an amazing experience, exploring their identity as bicultural individuals through increased awareness of ASL, deaf culture, hearing culture and by sharing their own stories.

KODAs will spend seven days and six nights at Camp Surf, located on Imperial Beach. This 45-acre facility is lucky to have some of the last undeveloped coastline left in Southern California. Imagine falling asleep each night to the sound of the surf in the background knowing that tomorrow will bring fun, adventure and learning.

Activities will include: Surfing, Body Boarding, Sand Sculpturing, Rock Climbing, Archery, Games, Nightly Campfires, Skits, Arts & Crafts. Kayaking for older campers (12 and up only). Unique life skills will include: Nature Hike, Sea Survival, Team Building, and Science of Waves.
All meals are healthy and organic, and vegetarian dishes made upon request.

Camp Director: Molly Bowen, a CODA from Northern California, will provide activities that help KODA campers understand their unique heritage and leave with a deep appreciation of their group identity as KODAs.
“From the outside in, you can’t understand it. From the inside out, you can’t explain it.” (quoted by a CODA counselor at KODAWest camp, 2008)
