Camp Wawbeek
Wisconsin Dells, WI

TThe longest continuously-operating Easter Seals camp in the nation, Easter Seals Wisconsin Camp Wawbeek began providing services to children and adults with physical disabilities in 1938. By striving to keep pace with the changing needs of our campers and community, Camp Wawbeek continues to evolve and thrive.
There is always something to do at Camp Wawbeek. When campers aren’t boating, fishing, hiking or swimming, they’re playing basketball, painting, racing through obstacle courses, exploring attractions in Wisconsin Dells, or flying through the air on a zip line! Everything is fully accessible and campers are encouraged to challenge themselves with new experiences and set goals for new accomplishments.
For campers of all ages, there is also time to relax, make new friends and reminisce with old ones. Evenings bring campfires, dances, special events and each day ends with a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment.

Mission Statement: To increase independence, maximize opportunities, minimize barriers, and enhance the quality of life for people with disabilities.
