For more than half a century, Camp Bowen has been a second home to its campers and a cornerstone of Canada’s Blind, DeafBlind, and Low Vision Community. For many Canadians who are blind, DeafBlind, or low vision, Camp Bowen is the one place where they can truly be themselves. Whether it is swimming independently for the first time or just meeting likeminded people, Camp Bowen is a sanctuary, where blindness and DeafBlindness are not barriers, life-long friendships are made, and campers are encouraged to reach their full potentials.
Summer Independence Camps
Camp Bowen provides fun and engaging retreats for blind, DeafBlind, and low vision Canadians of all ages to come together, share and learn. No matter how you like to spend your time, we have a program that’s got you covered.
