Victory Camp
Victory Camp is an active program for adults with developmental disabilities. Activities to look forward to include worship, Bible study, pontoon boat rides, shallow water swimming, arts-n-crafts, campfires, and games, all with lots of fun and laughter.
Staff members provide energy, supervise and lead activities, all while encouraging participation. Trained medical volunteers help administer medications and provide oversight.
Come have the experience of a lifetime while meeting new friends and renewing old friendships! Many Victory Campers come year after year, and their experience remains a highlight of their summer. Staff love it too!

Other Considerations
Lodging
Lodging for Victory Camp is provided in our duplexes. Campers will sleep on bottom bunks.
Campers must submit a Health History Form and a Level of Care Questionnaire for registration to be considered complete. Level of Care Questionnaire can now be accessed on our CampBrain online registration system or be downloaded from our website and submitted via email or via U.S. Postal Service.
Meals

Mobility
Fortune Lake Lutheran Camp does not have paved roads or trails. Our roadways and trails are gravel.

Campers need to navigate these areas with minimal assistance, rain or shine.
