Apply NowA Camp For Everyone
At Lions Camp Horizon, we believe everyone deserves the summer camp experience — at every age. While many programs stop once individuals reach adulthood, Lions Camp Horizon continues to welcome campers throughout their lifetime. We have no upper age limit, because we believe fun, friendship, and belonging are for every age. Our campers range in age from 15 to 75+, and some have been part of our camp family for more than 35 years. Here, traditions continue, friendships deepen, and every year brings new opportunities for connection. Our program is designed for teens and adults with physical and developmental disabilities, offering a safe, inclusive, and opportunity-filled environment where every camper can shine. From arts and crafts and games to music, sports and talent shows, each day is created with accessibility, creativity, and community in mind. With a dedicated team of trained staff and volunteers, we focus on ability, not disability, and celebrate every person for who they are. Camp Horizon is more than a camp, it’s a place of belonging, laughter, and lifelong memories. We offer two types of overnight sessions — Base Camp and Adventure Camp — each running 5 days and 4 nights (Monday–Friday).
Please review the eligibility guidelines below and contact us with any questions.
Base Camp
Base Camp is the center of the Camp Horizon experience — a full, exciting session filled with activities and adventure right here on campus. While first-time campers begin here, many choose to remain in Base Camp year after year because they love the familiar environment, the strong sense of community, and the variety of on-site fun. Base Camp also provides a higher level of support for campers who benefit from 1:1 or 2:1 care, ensuring that everyone can participate comfortably and confidently. It offers the same joy, energy, and connection as Adventure Camp, just without off-campus travel making it a perfect fit for campers of all ages and support needs

Adventure Camp
Adventure Camp is for campers who are a little more independent and ready to keep the fun going — both on campus and out in the community! It still offers the fun and adventure you know and love from camp, but the excitement doesn’t stop at the camp gates. We offer two offsite field trips including a beach day and an adventure to be announced! To ensure the safety of campers and staff, campers must attend a Base Camp session first or complete a site-visit meeting before joining Adventure Camp. 3:1-4:1 camper to staff ratio is required for Adventure Camp.
