A colleague of mine ran a camping trip for folks with Alzheimer Disease. She said it was spectacular. They played games, had campfires, roasted marshmallows and sang campfire songs...anything you would usually do at a camp. Everyone was engaged, enjoyed being in nature and seemed to instinctively know what to do at camp. Wandering wasn't an issue, either.
We should do more of this kind of thing.
