For many of the children and our volunteers, Camp Spirit is an experience that spans far beyond a week at camp. This is a warm and supportive environment where children can be themselves and have fun with others who are just like them. Check out our Photo Gallery

At Camp Spirit Colorado, we understand that your decision to send your child away to camp is a very sensitive and potentially difficult one. The health and safety of your child is of paramount concern to us. For 17 years, we have worked hard to anticipate and prepare so that camp is fun, campers feel at home and safety isn't a concern.
