Campers
A wonderful summer camp where God's gifted people can "Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ."
LEARN MORE ABOUT BEING A CAMPER
In both Camp BASIC Week One and Week Two, campers and counselors work together, play together, grow together and learn how to love Jesus even more together. Daily activities include Bible lessons, arts & crafts projects, games and outings. And all campers are provided delicious meals and snacks in a safe, clean and comfortable environment.
Camp BASIC is staffed with volunteers and designed for people 10 years or older who have moderate developmental disabilities. Our facility can also accommodate campers with moderate physical disabilities, but please consider that camp activities require some strength and stamina—we don't want anyone to feel left out. Campers should be able to walk independently and have independent toileting and feeding skills




Who is eligible for camp?
Camp BASIC welcomes campers 10 years of age and older. Please keep in mind that Camp BASIC is staffed with volunteers and designed for persons with mild to moderate developmental disability, who are ambulatory. Please consider that camp activities require some strength and stamina. Campers need to participate in activities. Campers should be able to walk independently and have independent toileting and feeding skills. Our camp counselors are volunteers, primarily young people, who may not be experienced in giving personal care such as when a camper has toileting accidents on a regular basis. Our camp also has no laundry facilities. Campers that require wheelchairs or assistance with toileting may apply, but will be accepted dependent on available volunteers to help with those needs. If a camper is requiring more assistance at camp than indicated on the application, the caregiver will be notified and may be asked to pick up the camper. Camp BASIC reserves the right not to accept a camper if the camp staff feels they will not be able to satisfactorily meet the camper’s needs.
