"I am happy to announce the Summer Schedule for the 2026 camping season," said President & CEO, Stephen Mabry. Pictured at right is a snap-shot of the schedule.
- Our summer begins with three sessions of "regular", residential youth camps for children with physical disabilities, ages 7-16 will be held. (No families at camp these weeks).
- We will then host Camp David and a session for children who have Down Syndrome.
- The next two weeks will see the return Dr. Ponder and the medical team and are set aside for our campers who have type-1 diabetes.
- Camp Discovery will then be back in the house. A one-of-a-kind experience for children who have cancer or are in remission.
- Finally, we will end the summer with our innovative program for families.

Changes Coming in 2026
That's Going to Leave a Mark!
In concert with the Texas Lions Camp Executive Committee and Board, President & CEO Stephen Mabry has executed a contract to demolish seven additional buildings on Texas Lions Camp’s grounds. These include Bunkhouses 3, 4, 5, and 6, Jackson Dormitory, and Houses 1 and 2, in addition to the Staff Lounge, which has already been demolished.
These buildings—many of which have stood since the 1950s—have faithfully served generations of Texas children with disabilities. “Those who know us best know that we emphasize safety for those in our care,” said Mabry “and it is time to retire these structures and start anew.”

Makin' Tracks!
Texas Lions Camp was founded on the principle that every child is deserving of a happy childhood. By inviting children to participate in activities they may have otherwise believed out of their reach, we hope to help them improve their self-esteem and step into their life's calling.

Texas Lions Camp is built for people like me. I live in a world built for you 51 weeks out of the year, but for one week every year I live in a place built for me. It's heaven on earth for kids like us.
