Your donations will Make a Difference in a Child's Life and ensure they have a terrific week at Camp Ripley!

Your sponsorship will help to offer camperships to campers needing financial assistance and fund equipment in dire need of replacement. Nearly 100% of tax deductable donations we receive directly support the operation of our camps. Your contribution will allow us to continue to Make a Difference in a Child’s Life!

Many of our campers have experienced the activation of a parent or loved one. All our staff members are volunteers. They help campers understand why their parents serve in the Minnesota National Guard, help them to cope with the stress of separation caused by the call of duty and instill a sense of pride. Our volunteers create a safe and caring environment designed to help campers feel good about themselves!

    This camp was an important part of a dream when I helped get it started, and I have enjoyed 18 years of being a small part ever since

    The most enjoyable camp I have ever been a part of. It is truly amazing to watch the kids grow so much in such a short period of time.

    Some of my favorite memories come from back in '91 as a camper, and then years later as a CIT and then as a counselor!
