We invite you to explore the organizations that we partner with. Their online information is below.
Camping for Courage Center. Our camps run a variety of programs for kids and teens who have physical disabilities as their primary or only disability. We have a particular interest in science and technology. Our main programs include; HANDI-HAMS/radio camp - one week sessions in MN and California for people who have disabilities and have an interest in HAM radio (lots of engineers, physicists, math people are part of our corps of volunteer instructors); environmental education resident programs including significant facility and curriculum adaptations for special needs students and, finally College Preview Camp. This session is for teens who have disabilities and have college potential, especially in areas of math, science and business. We run the program in partnership with the University of Washington's DO-IT program. Their director and key staff come in for 10 days to teach and upgrade computer communication skills with students while also giving campers a preview of college life and how to be successful.
