Camp L.I.T. is FREE! We are a non-profit organization and fundraise year-round to be able to offer camps, the mentoring programs, and the social events free of charge to our attendees.

We are a faith-based camp but provide a safe environment for campers to share their diverse beliefs and views.

Arts, Crafts, Swimming, Canoeing, Fishing, Basketball, Gaga ball, low-element Challenge Course, archery, soccer, journaling-all designed to build trust and teamwork in a fun-filled environment.

Camp dates will be released early fall for the following summer. After camp dates are released, camper applications go live. Each camp has limited space, so we require that each camper have an application submitted no later than a week before the first day of camp. Space at camp is filled on a first-come, first-served basis allowing for returning campers after the first year. If space is available, we will accept late applications as well.  

We try to accommodate all medical needs by having a licensed nurse (LPN or RN) and a Licensed Therapist available 24 hours a day and we keep all medicines and medical supplies always locked up.

We can accommodate most dietary needs IF we are notified in advance of camp, preferably on the camper application at the time of submission.

Coaches are responsible to know where their campers are at all times. Campers are paired with coaches in a 2-to-1 ratio. Coaches are paired with a buddy coach who will also have up to 2 campers. Campers are not permitted to go off on their own. Additionally, there is a two-deep rule that no adult is ever alone with a camper. Additional support staff is provided guaranteeing the campers are never alone except for shower time and toilet use.

Once applications have been accepted, parents/foster parents/legal guardians will be provided the date, time and location for registration. Registration happens on the morning of the first day of camp. Registration is usually at a convenient community location such as a church or meeting place. An adult/guardian must accompany campers to registration to ensure that medications are properly turned over to the medical staff and that the camper and their belongings have been placed into our care. Camp L.I.T. staff will let the adult know when it is okay for them to leave as there are a few different steps they will need to go with to with their youth. In the same way, on return, the camper will only be released into the care of the appropriate adult/guardian.
