The Courage Camp Program


Courage Camps operate three primary programs and several special programs. Camp Courage offers sessions for children and adults with physical disabilities in its Lakeside Unit. There are special subsessions for computer technology and the internet, adaptive sports, and augmentative and adaptive communication technology. In the Woodland Unit, campers on the caseload of a Speech Clinican in their home school can come for ongoing Speech Therapy on a daily basis and reinforcement throughout the camp day. SLP's provide daily therapy sessions and reports of progress are sent to the home speech clinician.

At Courage North, campers who are deaf or hard of hearing learn leadership through outdoor adventure activities. Campers plan daily activities and plan and take backpack, canoe, or bike trips out of camp.

In addition to the primary programs, specialty camps for children with cancer, sickle cell anemia, asthma, hemophilia, aspberger's syndrome, and muscular dystophy are offered in conjunction with cooperating organizations.

The modern camp sites offer accessible venues for participation in such programs as horse riding, boating of all kinds, swimming in the lake or heated indoor pool, indoor gym games and outdoor athletics, environmental activities, crafts, photography and video, and computer technology.

Staff are offered competitive salaries and scholarship opportunities for a summer of education and fun. We have family housing options for married staff. Professional staff are compensated at a rate commensurate with their degrees and experience. Check our web site for application materials.
