Why Camp Kostopulos?
Our highly trained staff, excellent counselor to camper
ratios and fantastic accommodations set us above the
rest. We don’t stop when the summer ends. During the
rest of the year, participants may explore leisure
activities throughout the Salt Lake Valley in camp’s
community- based recreation programs. We offer K-Kid
Adventures, an after school program for kids 7-12, as
well as Teen Quest, and the Adult Social Club, which are
evening programs that allow teens and adults to
socialize and engage in a variety of activities. In
addition to these activities, camp offers programs and
facility rentals to many different corporate, civic and
social groups. The Leadership Challenge program uses
high and low challenge ropes course events with
initiative programming to provide an excellent
non-traditional training opportunity. Finally, private
rentals of the Camp Kostopulos facility are offered on
weekends during the summer and throughout the year.
Weddings, retreats, school field trips, and company
picnics can all be accommodated at our site. Service and
volunteerism are at the heart of any nonprofit agency.
Our success has been facilitated by the kindness and
generosity of our community. Volunteers give their time
and effort to assist in the programs or work on physical
projects at camp. Others may choose to assist us
financially. The rewards of giving back to your
community can not be measured. Please contact us to
become a part of the magic that is the Kostopulos Dream
Foundation.

Camp Kostopulos
Since 1967 the Kostopulos Dream
Foundation has been dedicated to
improving the lives of people with
disabilities through the medium of
recreation and leisure education. Our
longest running program, Camp Kostopulos,
is a residential summer camp where kids,
teens, and adults with disabilities are
able to choose from two options a five
day residential camp or travel trips.
Campers enjoy fishing, horse riding,
swimming, camp outs, sing songs, create
arts and craft projects, challenge
themselves on the ropes course, make new
friends, and renew old friendships. The
Travel Trip Adventures program offers
campers a five day trip camp to places
such as Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon,
Yellowstone Park, Colorado or Jackson
Hole. Activities could include river
running, hiking, viewing wildlife, and
visiting attractions, this and much more
are all part of these trips.
Our year round recreation program offers
several weekly community based
activities for people of all ages with
disabilities who want to participate in
recreation activities located either at
Camp K, or |
