    The Wisconsin Lions Camp is a product of the Wisconsin Lions Foundation & is dedicated to providing quality camp experiences for Wisconsin youth and adults with disabilities. Our Summer Camp Programs are provided to our participants free-of-charge thanks to the generosity of Lions Clubs and other donors from Wisconsin. This program uses a lottery system to select campers for each session. Campers must notify us which session’s lottery they would like to be in by February 1, 2023. Because the program is free of charge, we reserve the right to accept. The Camp Director reviews all applications to determine if we can ensure a successful camp experience for the camper. Once that is determined, campers will receive a confirmation packet or a letter from the Camp Director denying the application. 2023 Camp Applications Now Available!
