Wisconsin Lions Camp

Situated on 440 well-groomed acres with a 45-acre private lake, the Wisconsin Lions Camp encourages learning through outdoor recreational and educational activities. During our summer camp sessions we serve youth with mild cognitive disabilities and diabetes, as well as youth and adults who are Deaf and Hard of Hearing or Blind and Visually Impaired. There is no cost for attending any of the Summer Camp programs for qualified Wisconsin residents. The Wisconsin Lions Camp also provides Retreat and Conference Center programs from September through May.

Vision Screening

The goal is to screen all children age 6 months through 18 years, with emphasis on children enrolled in daycare centers and preschools. The screening does not replace a professional eye exam.  In 2012, the WLF Board of Directors and Council of Governors added Adult Vision Screening to our mission with our poartners at Prevent Blindness Wisconsin.
