This is such a great camp. My 8 year old is having the time of her life! She wants to be a camp counselor when she is in high school.

Our son loved his first time at Camp High Hopes!

★★★★★Lindsey Buchheit

Amazing organization with truly compassionate leadership, staff, and volunteers. Witnessing the life-changing experience Camp High Hopes provides for its campers - and everyone involved - is inspirational to say the least. Camp High Hopes is the epitome of what a non-profit organization should be!

★★★★★Ann Myers

THis camp is very active in our community. I know a number of youth and adults who use the services and enjoy it greatly. It has a nurse on staff and educated, qualified and experienced leadership. Every time I am at the camp it puts a smile on my face!
