Lions Bear Lake Camp is proud to be accredited by the American Camping Association. Developed exclusively for the camp profession, this nationally-recognized program focuses on program quality, health and safety issues and requires us to review every facet of our operation.

Partners with organizations to provide camperships

Image

This is an opportunity for students to apply for funding (up to $250) to attend a summer camp in Michigan. These camperships are open to students with an IEP, in need of financial support, and would otherwise not have an opportunity for a summer camp experience. This scholarship funding is made possible thanks to a collaboration with the Family Center for Children and Youth with Special Health Care Needs (Family Center).

For more information on the Family Center, please go to www.michigan.gov/familycenter or call 800-359-3722.
