Timbertop Summer Camp for Kids with Learning Disabilities / Differences and Special Needs.
Camp Timbertop is for kids with learning disabilities and special needs. Timbertop is a Wisconsin overnight summer camp program designed for kids that think and learn differently. Youth campers have been identified by their School District as needing extra help for a learning disability or special need. Specific learning disabilities or special needs may include: OHI, ADHD, ADD, LD, SLD and Dyslexia. Student receiving support services such as Leveled Learning Intervention (LLI), Reading and Math Support and Title 1, are also eligible.
Timbertop combines traditional camp activities with extra reading practice and group activities that focus on dealing with those learning disability differences and special needs in a structured daily setting.
We are dedicated to providing a safe, fun and small group environment, which develops the spirit, mind and body of each individual. Camp is a special place where youth and teens learn about the environment, develop positive values, make meaningful friendships, build positive peer relationships, learn new skills, increase self-confidence and learn to understand their learning disabilities. In our community of caring adults Timbertop summer camp helps kids grow and find themselves.
