Camper Application TESTING

Note: Our goal is to provide as many individuals as possible the opportunity to attend a camp session. Space is limited but we will make every effort to fulfill your request for multiple sessions.

**Campers must meet eligibility requirements for participation in Adventure Camp sessions including previous attendance at Lions Camp Horizon.  Contact us at acd@lionscamphorizon.org for further information on eligibility.

Registration Deposits: 

A $50.00 non-refundable deposit is required of private-pay campers for each session requested. The deposit is not required of campers using DSHS/DDA funding.  Campers using DSHS/DDA funding must have respite hours and payment pre-approved by their Case Manager before we will hold session dates.  We will submit a pre-authorization request to DSHS/DDA but it is the Parent/Guardian’s responsibility to follow-up and ensure we receive it within 14 business days of the request.

Note: Your Case Manager’s e-mail address is required for securing your camper’s pre-authorizations. Applications cannot be processed without the Case Manager’s valid email address.

We periodically have volunteer groups bring horses for riding, therapy animals or "guests' from a petting zoo. Please let us know:

These are general medical questions, a Health Examination Form will be provided for your camper's Doctor or Nurse Practitioner to complete.

Effective January 2024, Camp Horizon requests all medications are pre-packaged by your pharmacy in Bubble Packs or Simple Dose Packs. If your pharmacy doesn’t provide this service, there are on-line pharmacies such as Simple Meds or Pill-Pack and Amazon who offer this service.

We no longer prepare individual meals for finnicky campers with a limited palete of foods he/she will eat.  We offer several healthy, nutritious options for each meal for our campers, staff and volunteers to choose from along with healthy snacks.  Please contact us if you have questions regarding your camper’s food requirements.

Our Admissions Team meets remotely once a week to review applications. If the Team has questions regarding your camper, a Team Member will contact you.  If your application is complete, you will receive a Health Exam Form to be completed by your camper’s Physician and other documents for review and signing. You’ll be advised of the sessions date(s) we are holding pending return of completed documents and payment. 

Upon receipt of the completed Health Exam Form, Consent Forms and payment in full of all session fees or DSHS/DDA pre-authorization, a Confirmation Packet will be emailed confirming the session dates reserved, instructions for providing medications for your camper and a Packing List. Until we receive the completed documents applications remain “pending.”  With the exception of DSHS/DDA clients, payment in full for session fees is June 10, 2024. It is the parent or guardian’s responsibility to ensure payments from third party sources including individual Lions Club Camperships, Trusts or Tribal programs are received by the deadline. We will process paperwork for DSHS/DDA in accordance with their policies & procedures. 

Deposits may be paid by check, debit or credit card. Mail checks payable to Lions Camp Horizon to 7506 Gemini St., Blaine, WA 98230. To pay with a debit/credit card, please visit our website and click on the “CAMP” drop-down box located at the top of the home page. Click on “Fees” and follow the prompts to access our secure PayPal link. Please note - PayPal charges a fee for each transaction.

The camp office is not fully operational off-season so there will be a delay in returning telephone messages. We encourage you to email  acd@lionscamphorizon.org with any questions you have and one of our Admissions Team volunteers will contact you.  

Although we can accommodate upwards of 55 campers per session, we are limited to the number of individuals we may accept per session by many conditions including but not limited to the use of wheelchairs, two-person lifts and transfers, medical treatments, tube feedings and other specialized care.  We will do our best to place your applicant in the preferred session, but please bear in mind admission and session placement depends on many factors. 

The staff and Board of Directors reserve the right to refuse or cancel enrollment of an individual if we don’t believe we can accommodate the needs of the camper, or, if they pose a risk to himself/herself or others.

Please feel free to provide further information you feel will be helpful for making your camper’s experience stress-free. If this is your camper’s first time attending an over-night camp, we encourage you to schedule a tour of our campus and a meeting with one of our Admission Staff between now and May.
