About this program

, a chance to learn and participate in a variety of adaptive sports and recreational activities, while building leadership and self-advocacy skills, developing greater independence, and making lifelong friends.

Our camp is unique in that we cater to a wide range of physical disabilities, including both ambulatory and wheelchair users. All activities are carefully adapted to match each camper’s ability, ensuring that everyone can fully participate.

Campers will have the opportunity to experience and learn about adaptive sports, as well as engage in traditional camp activities and outdoor recreation. During these activities, they will receive coaching and guidance from BlazeSports staff, coaches, and counselors, who are dedicated to helping each camper succeed.

BlazeSports coaches bring years of experience in adaptive sport and recreation. In fact, some of our coaches are collegiate adaptive sport athletes and former Paralympians, offering campers invaluable expertise and insight.

At BlazeSports, we recognize sport as not only a way to stay active and healthy, but also as a tool for building life skills and self-advocacy. By the end of the week, campers will leave feeling more confident, independent, and empowered as leaders. They will also have made lasting friendships that will continue to support their growth.

Campers share a room in a large, air-conditioned, modern cabin, typically with 3 or 4 campers per room. Each room has an accessible en-suite bathroom with a roll-in shower, and all linens and towels are provided. A spacious central area within each cabin allows campers to meet and socialize. Camp Phoenix is a technology-free camp, encouraging interaction and engagement.
