Easter Seals Oregon Upward Bound Camp
A Residential camp without Barriers for Children and Adults with Disabilities. At Upward Bound Camp, we recognize the gifts and potential of our campers. We create an environment that emphasizes the campers' abilities and independence, as well as the development of their leisure skills, social skills and appreciation of the outdoors. Participants make friends, learn about and explore nature, sing songs around the camp fire, gain confidence, and create memories that linger long after the camp fires have died down.
Easter Seals Oregon offers two camp sessions at Upward Bound Camp near Lyons, OR, located 30 miles east of Salem. The camper fee for either session is $695 and includes lodging, meals, supervision, medication management, and activities.

Favorite activities at Upward Bound Camp include: swimming, horseback riding, boating, fishing, archery, dances, skits, talent shows, arts and crafts, sports and games, special meals, board games, nature hikes, and much more.
Upward Bound Camp is fully accredited by the American Camping Association and is tailored for children and adults with special needs.
To ensure a fun, safe, memorable camp experience for all, it is important to determine if the camper's personal care and supervision needs can be met by camp staff. We serve people with a wide array of ability levels and try very hard to accommodate all campers, including those with moderate behavioral or medical considerations. All camper registrations must be approved by Upward Bound Camp Director and the Camp Nurse prior to being confirmed.
Registration Deadline – April 1st.
