Accessibility Is

What We Make It

We understand first-hand, that adventure comes in all shapes and sizes. From ziplining to climbing through fire trucks… horses to paddleboarding, or simply blowing your first bubble — we celebrate every triumph with wild enthusiasm. At Camp Hayden it’s all about what we CAN do. We are passionate about safely and adapting for true accessibility.

— TEAM CAMP HAYDEN

Camp Hayden was inspired by  3-yr-old Hayden Chapa. Hayden was a child with special needs from Idaho Falls, Idaho with Microlissencephaly. Knowing that his time on earth would be limited, Hayden’s parents, Kami & Jason Chapa were determined to give him every wonder-filled, childhood experience possible. And so began the story of Camp Hayden.

The loss of our son led us down a path of healing, helping, giving and living.
— KAMI & JASON CHAPA

OUR VISION

A Forever Home for Camp Hayden

Through our hard work we are inspired to create Idaho’s first special needs camp that incorporates the entire family. With the support of our volunteer board, we are able to put every donation towards our programs and the families we work with. Our goal is to acquire land to create a forever home for Camp Hayden which can provide us with unlimited opportunities; a fully equipped Adventure Camp, Lodge, cabins, horse arena, butterfly garden and much more.

TESTIMONIALS

What People Are Saying

About Camp Hayden

"I have nothing but love for what Camp Hayden has done for our family. The biggest joy I have from this camp is that I have seen both boys do things I never thought they would be able to."
Deanise Franck- Parent
Donated:
"Attending Camp Hayden was the most amazing and fulfilling experience we have had as a family... It was wonderful to get to see our typically-abled children participate in activities and be able to spend time with siblings that have been through what they have."
Jenny Lowry- Parent
Donated:
"Being part of Camp Hayden has changed my life. Taking my son places was a scary thought. Kami and Jason were my support, our cheerleaders, they gave me the courage to take him out of our comfort zone... my sweet little boy, who I didn't think was still there, was there!"
Amy Smith- Board Member & Parent
Donated:
" This camp is so cool because so many things were available to do all in one location and were available to all ages and abilities. As a mom of three, it's so hard to find one place that I can take my family to, where everyone equally has fun."
Kara Johnson- Parent
Donated:
"My heart is so full as I try to come up with the words to adequately explain how rewarding it was to participate in Camp Hayden this year. This experience sits in my top five greatest adventures in my 59 years."
