Camp Kostopulos

The Kostopulos Dream Foundation is dedicated to improving the quality of life for people of all abilities through recreation, education and growth opportunities.

Since 1967, The Kostopulos Dream Foundation has offered recreational opportunities for people of all ages and abilities.

Our longest running program is Summer Camp, where kids, teens, and adults with disabilities or special medical needs experience a 5-day camping adventure. There are 3 types of Summer Camp: Residential, Day, and Trip. Residential and Day Campers go fishing, ride horses, camp out, sing songs, work on arts and crafts projects, challenge themselves on the ropes course, make new friends, and renew old friendships. Residential campers spend 4 nights on our campus, while Day Campers spend the night at their own homes, and return to Camp K each morning. Trip Campers spend 5 days on the road as a participant in the Travel Trip Adventures program. These trips journey to places like Yellowstone, Moab, Bear Lake, or Jackson Hole, and may include adventures such as river running, hiking, viewing wildlife, and visiting attractions.

The fun at Camp K isn’t limited to the summer. We are open all year, and offer a variety of activities throughout the year.

Our Community Based Programs run from September-April. We offer 5-6 activities per week, and our participants are encouraged to take advantage of these opportunities as often as possible. Some of the opportunities offered are cooking classes, Jazz Games, Community dances, bowling, holiday parties, and much more.

Our Vocational Rehabilitation and Work Experience programs prepare students to successfully transition from high school into the workforce. In Vocational Rehabilitation, they learn the skills and attitudes necessary to apply for and obtain a job. In Work Experience, they apply the skills that they learned, as they work at Camp K during Summer Camp.

Our Equestrian Program runs year-round. Our campers experience valuable equine therapy opportunities during both the Summer and Community Based programs. We also offer individual riding lessons for people of all abilities.
