Camp Summit

The mission of Camp Summit is to provide barrier-free outdoor experiences that promote personal growth and foster independence for children and adults with disabilities.

As our name implies, our goal is to help children and adults with disabilities reach their own personal peak by providing recreational, therapeutic and social activities in an authentically natural camp setting. The benefits of our camping program are endless! Campers are encouraged to try new experiences in order to gain self-confidence, increase personal independence and learn cooperation.

Camp Summit's campers may range in age from six to ninety-nine years old. We have experienced a unique longevity in our client base due to the fact that we have no upper age limits. Our campers may be developmentally delayed (Down syndrome, Autism, Intellectual disabilities, etc.), physically challenged (Cerebral Palsy, Spina Bifida, paralysis, etc.), deaf blind multi-handicapped or have multiple disabilities ranging from mild to severe. At Camp Summit we never deny a campers' participation due to their inability to pay or the severity of their disability. As long as we can medically handle their needs they are welcome at camp.

We are accredited by the American Camp Association and licensed as a Youth Camp in the State of Texas.

Agencies and organizations can book special programs year-round through our A.C.O.R.N. (Agency Cooperative Outdoor Recreational Network) program.
