Summer Camp 2003
Under the carefully supervised direction of the Camp Daniel staff, physically and mentally challenged people from age 8 to 88 have access to a summer camping program dedicated to their needs.  Campers enjoy a wide range of recreational activities, social growth and devotions/chapel services.  A one to one staff/camper ratio when needed ensures that each camper receives the best care, physically, spiritually and socially.  Camp Daniel's non-denominational Christian emphasis allows people of any faith to participate.  Every activity of a typical Christian camping program is included and adapted to the person with a disablilty.
Camp Daniel is possible because of the committed Christian men and women who volunteer to serve as counselors, offering each camper someone who will lovingly meet all their needs.  Campers and counselors who have attended in the past would agree that their lives have been profoundly affected by the experience.  Please contact Camp Daniel to get an application, or download in Microsoft Word format below.

Camp is held at THE LAKE HELEN BIBLE CAMPGROUNDS in Wausaukee, WI due to the ongoing construction on the Camp Daniel grounds.  The Lake Helen Campground is beautifully set on a private lake in the woods of Northeastern Wisconsin.  Some of the camp's best features are the amazing catch and release fishing for giant bass and bluegill and the beautiful beach for swimming.  The Lake Helen grounds, where Camp Daniel is held, is 75 miles directly North of Green Bay off Hwy. 141.  Follow the Camp Daniel and Lake Helen signs just 3 miles north of Wausaukee.
