Dear Potential Camper, Parent, and/or Guardian:

We are so happy for the possibility of you being a part of Handicapable Camp in 2023!! Download an information sheet here. (.pdf)

We are a volunteer-based camp that focuses on what the campers can do and not their limitations. Due to being a camp that services teens and adults with disabilities, we are limited in the number of camper positions that are available. These spots are filled on a first come, first received basis. Camp fills up fast, so, it is best to get your application in as soon as possible.

Registration for Camp is Closed.

Important points to note:

• Incomplete applications (missing signatures, information or forms) will be returned. It is possible that this could exclude the camper from being in the limited number of campers accepted. It is important that you submit the completed application along with all forms and signatures as soon as possible and no later than Friday, July 7, 2023.
• Applications are accepted by determining what the camper’s medical needs are, and if camp staff can meet those needs.
• All medical information must be listed including prescribed medicines and over-the-counter drugs. All medicines will be stored with our medical staff. Medicines will be available any time they are needed.
• All medical equipment that is sent to camp must be labeled with the camper’s name.
• Be sure to provide the name and phone number of the person who will be available during Camp as the Emergency Contact.
• The board of directors asks all items of personal value be left at home. Handicapable Camp CANNOT be held liable for items lost or broken at camp.
