Woodward Foundation Supports Wisconsin Badger Camp

Wisconsin Badger Camp is proud to announce that we are the recipient of a $5,000 grant from the Woodward Foundation. This grant will financially support individuals with developmental disabilities from Iowa through our campership program who attend Wisconsin Badger Camp.

This grant will help provide 21 individuals from Iowa to experience outdoor recreational activities such as fishing, hiking, camping, horseback riding, canoeing, and arts & crafts. Wisconsin Badger Camp brings a tradition of outdoor recreational experiences to people of any ability or age regardless of one’s financial situation.

 “We are very appreciative of the Woodward Foundation for their support and helping individuals with developmental disabilities attend camp,” Wisconsin Badger Camp Executive Director Brent Bowers said. “It cost over $800 to host a camper for one week at camp, but we realize many of the individuals we serve are on limited or restricted incomes. With the support of the Woodward Foundation individuals can come to camp regardless of what their financial situation is,” Bowers said.

Wisconsin Badger Camp is an independent nonprofit organization located approximately 10 miles south of Prairie du Chien and serves approximately 900 individuals with developmental disabilities each summer. Badger Camp relies on the community’s time, talent, and financial assistance to provide for its campers.
