Summer: Camp Freedom
Colorado Discover Ability again has partnered with local health care providers from Grand Junction to design a unique 3-day camp experience for children 6-12 years old. This year, each 3-day camp is at Camp Redcloud near Lake City, in Western Colorado.

The total cost per child is $250.00, and this includes meals, lodging, activities and transportation. Scholarships are available by completing the pre-registration form below.

An experienced and energetic staff will provide creative activities and supervision. While each camp is roughly designed to accommodate kids with differing disabilities, the following guidelines are not strict. If your child cannot attend the camp that best suits their needs please be assured that he or she is welcome to attend the alternate date.

Camp activities include rafting, kayaking, hiking, horseback riding, crafts, games, fishing, outdoor education, swimming and camp fires.

The summer 2008 Camp Freedom will include two, 3-day, weekend camps:

Camp Mountain Goat Getaway Camp Mountain Lion Lounge
Camp Freedom - Mountain Goat Getaway will provide children with developmental delay, physical and cognitive disabilities, an opportunity to explore the outdoors with activities designed to facilitate success and wilderness enjoyment.

The focus for these campers is teamwork and adventure through exposure to new experiences and peer interaction.
When: July 7-9
  Camp Freedom - Mountain Lion Lounge will provide children with primarily physical disabilities an outdoor camp experience. Activities are designed to build self-esteem and friendships.

The goal is to find commonalities and support others who have physical challenges.
When: July 9-11


The founding volunteers have a wide range of expertise and experience working with children who have disabilities: physicians, nurses, as well as physical, occupational, speech, and recreation therapists. Colorado Discover Ability, an established adaptive outdoor recreation organization, will advise and support the camp in administration, logistics, and coordination.
