Camp has ALWAYS been free for the camper!
History
Lions Youth Camp for children who are blind or visually impaired began in 1982. For over 40 years we have devoted ourselves to helping children who are visually impaired have amazing experiences.
We provide a week of traditional fun and camp activities. Our goal is to provide an opportunity for eligible youth to share a week of fun with their peers. We hope to promote self-confidence, teamwork, and self-reliance. We aim to challenge the campers through activities to encourage personal growth.
In short, fun with a purpose!

Counselors
Our staff is made up of volunteers who devote the week to helping our campers. Volunteers must come with a good attitude, ready to help our campers have an amazing week. Counselors must be 16 years or older with an acceptable background check.
Volunteers who work the full camp will be given 80 hours of service. Documentation of community service hours can be provided at the end of camp if needed.
