Here’s what to expect at Camp For All!

Let’s put it this way, your experience at Camp For All will be unique, memorable, fun, and you will want to come back! 

A world unto itself, Camp For All was designed with a “can do” attitude regardless of your challenge! 
 
You are surrounded by people with your same diagnosis and sometimes, their family members, so everyone understands! You might already know some of the campers and, of course you will have the opportunity to make all kinds of new friends.
 

While at camp you live in a cabin and become part of a family of campers that are the same gender and age as you. The cabin can hold up to 14 campers and awesome counselors who are there to make your camp experience even more fun.

Here’s what a typical day looks like:

  • Wake up and get ready for the day! (Yeah, it does include brushing your teeth!)
  • Go to the air conditioned/heated Dining Hall and have a scrumptious breakfast! (If you have a special diet, don’t worry we can have great food for you to eat, too!)
  • Enjoy morning energizers to really wake you up and get going!
  • First activity of the day could include sports, horses or canoes.
  • Second activity of the morning: more fun at activities like inner tube water polo or arts and crafts
  • A yummy lunch in the Dining Hall
  • Cabin time: A little down time with your cabin friends to get your energy back before afternoon activities during weeklong camp. Weekend camps go right back to activities
  • Snack time! Before activities start back up, we help nourish our bodies by having a snack at the pavilion during weeklong summer groups.
  • In the afternoon you can participate in more activities like high ropes, fishing, nature and also plenty of pool time at free swim when the weather is hot!
  • Once the afternoon activities are finished, it is time for dinner!
  • After dinner everyone heads back to their cabin to get ready for the night activity
  • A whole camp can gather together for night activities like parties, carnivals, karaoke, talent shows and wish boat. (Come find out what that is!!)
  • What a day! Lights out and a good rest so you will be ready for another exciting tomorrow!

What can I do at camp? 

Remember, Camp For All is all about what you can do as opposed to what you can’t! The Camp For All programs are considered universal. That means that regardless of your physical ability or your age, you can do almost everything and then brag about your accomplishments when you go home!
