Spring is cooking along!  What beautiful weather.  The grass is getting greener by the day at Eagle Beach and we are now within weeks of our first camps for the summer.

April Update: Due to extenuating circumstances, we will NOT be hosting family camps this summer.  We apologize for this inconvenience.

Camp Consideration. As you consider the type of camp that is most appropriate for your son or daughter, there are important questions to ask.  Questions such as:

  • What types of disabilities are served at the Character Training Center?
  • How are the activities and social skills curriculum incorporated to meet these specific needs?

Youth want to know that they will have fun at camp. Not only are the highest standards of behavior kept, character values enforced and taught, but kids leave with a sense of community and the opportunity to meet others who have experienced similar backgrounds.  Scroll down the page to view our video and hear testimonials.

Summer 2010

Below, you will find the dates for the Character Training Center Camp 2010 .  This camp is for youth ages 7-17.  Because space is limited, contact us or send in your registration.

  • June 8-11 (1st Session)
  • June 13-16 (2nd Session)
  • August 22-25 (3rd Session)

Pricing

  • Character Training Camp (Session 1, 2, or 3): $625/youth per session.

Family Camp

In the future, we would like to host a camp experience for families.  Circumstances outside of our control are causing us to reconsider the structure of this camp.  We hope to extend this offering next summer.

A place where children build character skills and develop self-advocacy awaits at the Character Training Center.

If you know a child age 7-17  that wants to meet kids with similar backgrounds, learn about adoption, foster care, and important character skills and have a blast doing it, then the Character Training Center is the place for you. This is no ordinary adoption camp.  Youth will meet with other children who have similar pasts, learn life skills and social skills, play sports, swim, kayak, and much more. All of this takes place on the beautiful grounds of Eagle Beach Resort in Park Rapids, Minnesota. Click on the schedule to see the activities and get registered today!
