Activities at Camp Knutson

Camp Knutson is a place to make new friends, build confidence and have fun! During activity times at camp, camp staff are trained to offer the right amount of support and modifications needed to make sure each camper finds success and is able to participate at the level they’re comfortable with. We encourage campers to try activities that challenge them and help them learn about their strengths.
