Prom is perhaps the single most memorable event at Camp ASCCA, Alabama’s Special Camp for Children and Adults.
It is certainly one of the most unique and emotional events we have every year.
What will you see:
- The event lasts all day. Held during Teen Week, Prom is the reason some campers return to ASCCA each year.
- We offer cabin access to reporters interested in covering the event. Interview the campers as they prepare. Follow them to the banquet and prom.
- Catch the preening and primping of preparation for the evening’s dance and banquet. Interview campers and counselors.
- Prom dresses are donated for those campers that do not have one.
- We have a live band for the dance.
- The range of disabilities represented in the camper population this week is wide. You’ll see wheelchairs, walkers and other prosthetics and appliances.
- Most of the campers are quite verbal and eager to chat with you. The counselors are also available. They are the foundation of camp.
Camp ASCCA is proud of, and comfortable with, our programs and staff. You will have unfettered access to any area of camp.
No TV station has covered this event in about 20 years. That story won AP and UPI awards. You have a unique story awaiting you. We suggest a live remote broadcast during each of your evening broadcasts, if you’re interested.

Videos from the 2007 Prom Banquet and Dance are coming. They are uploading now.
