About Camp:
Approximately 300 youth, ages 10-15, converge on Camp Ripley in Minnesota every summer to attend the Minnesota National Guard Youth Camp. The campers are dependents (nieces, nephews, brothers, sisters and grandchildren) of current or retired Minnesota Guard members. They spend six days exploring Camp Ripley and experience the military base their relatives go to for training. They gain an understanding as to why family member(s) serve in the National Guard and how to cope with the stress and confusion of separation/ deployments. Camp also promotes respect, friendship, leadership, team building, self-confidence and community involvement and teaches about preserving their environment for future generations.
The Minnesota National Guard Youth Camp is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that is ACA accredited and 100% volunteer run.
With your support, we can keep the camp available to our military children. We thank you for your time and consideration to support our camp.
