Camp Twin Lakes: Camps for Kids with Challenges


I'm sharing information about Camp Twin Lakes because you just might know a child with challenges that needs a special camp. 

Here's why it's awesome. Camp Twin Lakes provides life-changing experiences to thousands of children with serious illnesses, disabilities and other life challenges. There are three fully accessible and medically-supportive campsites that provide week-long camps and year-round retreats. They cooperate with 60 different nonprofit organizations and subsidize 80% of the direct camp costs ($800) for every camper served!

Just click on the camp calendar to see if there is a camp for that special child in your life. Listen to these awesome titles!

Camp Twin Lakes Calendar and Camp Descriptions

Sunday I took my son to camp Twitch and Shout for the third summer. Camp T&S is a place for kids with Tourette Syndrome, a neurological disorder which produces involuntary movements called tics. What a blessing this camp  has been to our family!


My hope is that this information will be helpful to a child in your life. Support for these camps and specifically Camp Twitch and Shout is always appreciated!

  1. Jayne, This is really wonderful! One of my sons has hemophilia. He would have loved to attend Camp Wannaklot when he was young! Thank you for sharing. <3
