INDIAN TRAILS CAMP

ANOTHER BEST DAY—AT CAMP

For many, Indian Trails Camp is the highlight of their year, longed for with more anticipation than Christmas or even their own birthdays. That’s because ITC gives campers the ability to choose which activities they want to engage in no matter what their abilities are. It’s also because of our enthusiastic and energetic staff, who support and encourage campers as they challenge themselves.

THE BEST PART OF THE YEAR

Indian Trails Camp brings adaptive recreation to campers in a safe, barrier-free environment.

SUMMER CAMP

Registration for Summer Camp 2022 is now closed.

ITC is accredited by the American Camping Association and licensed as an AFC residential camp that provides overnight residential camping experiences in a beautiful, adaptive, and barrier-free natural setting. Most sessions are based on a traditional camp program, while other sessions provide a more specialized approach focusing on specific needs and the abilities of our campers.

SUMMER CAMP REGISTRATION UPDATE: Registration closed on 5/11 at 10 am. At this point in the process, if you have not heard about your waiting list status, we were unable to put you into a session. This does not mean you couldn’t get a spot due to cancellations. Thank you all for being understanding about the difficult circumstances we have all been in this year. We are still hiring and if you know anyone that would be interested in working at Indian Trails Camp, please encourage them to apply at ikuslife.org.
