Share the Magic of Summer Camp!
-- "The exposure to the outdoors and outdoor activities in a positive environment has been nothing but beneficial to both of my kids' personal growth. Our family is forever grateful" (from the parent of Summer 2024 Lake Nixon campers)
-- "Honestly, I don't know who gets more excited about camp - my daughter or myself. Thank you, Lake Nixon, for your kindness, for instilling good values and morals in my daughter while she is at camp, and for creating an inclusive, safe, and FUN atmosphere where she can spend a few weeks of her summer. There is no doubt in my mind that you are creating lifelong memories and making positive impacts. I am eternally grateful for the donors who choose to invest in Lake Nixon Summer Camp, which is truly making a difference in the lives of their campers." (from the mother of a summer 2024 camper who received financial assistance).

The annual Lake Nixon Scholarship and Sustaining Campaign makes stories like this possible. In 2024, more than 650 different campers spent at least a week at Lake Nixon. Of these, 18% were able to come because of direct financial assistance, and another 1/3 of all campers' families were able to pay an optional, reduced tuition rate.
Will you help us do the same and even more in 2025?
