ABOUT CAMP

Come swim and boat on Lions Lake, explore in our environmental education program, hit a target in archery, climb to new heights on our climbing tower, high ropes and zip line, create lasting art and performance projects, enjoy a campfire and wallow in our mud pit. Meet other youth and adults from Wisconsin and build lasting friendships in a safe environment.

This quality camping experience is provided free-of-charge to eligible youth and adults with disabilities from Wisconsin. We serve youth and adults who are blind or visually impaired, Deaf or Hard of Hearing, youth who function socially or educationally as having a mild cognitive disability and youth with diabetes. A chance remark, “Blind kids can’t go to outdoor camps and stuff like that…” started it all in 1955 and in 1956, the Lions Clubs of the State of Wisconsin founded the Wisconsin Lions Camp and the Wisconsin Lions Foundation, Inc. to administer the Camp program. From that humble beginning with 26 campers, we are proud to serve over 1,300 campers a summer.

The activities of the camp

Wisconsin Lions Camp have been developed to best meet the needs and interests of the campers it serves. While safety and instruction are an important part of all camp activities, fun is the key element that runs throughout the total camp program.

Certified 

lifeguard staff supervise all waterfront activities. 

Typical activities include:

? swimming ? fishing

? canoeing ? innertubing

? sailing ? archery

? kayaking ? performing arts

? paddleboats ? environmental education

 ? rowing

 ? crafts

 ? sports and games

 ? overnight campouts

 and cookouts

Anyone who meets the eligibility criteria is 

invited to apply for camp attendance. Rules for 

acceptance and participation are the same for 

everyone without regard to race, religion, color, 

sex, sexual orientation, disability, or national 

origin. Due to the active nature of the program, 

and a counselor to camper ratio of one to six, 

the camp is unable to accommo date persons 

with severe emotional problems, serious physical, 

mental, or medical limita tions, or those who 

have a moderate or severe cognitive disability.

Participation is limited to residents of Wisconsin or 

persons attending schools within the state. Out of 

state residents may apply on a space available basis 

and must pay the entire cost of the camping fee.

There is no cost for participation in the summer 

programs. However, a refundable $25 application 

deposit must be sent in with the application. 

Lions, Lioness, and Leo clubs throughout 

Wisconsin generously support the camp and its 

programs, along with help from individual 

contributors. Contributions are appreciated to 

ensure the ongoing camp operation. The 

Wisconsin Lions Camp is owned and operated by 

the Wisconsin Lions Foundation, which is an IRS 

501 (c)(3) charitable organization, so individual 

and business donations may be tax deductible as 

allowed by law.
