Mission Statement
The purpose of the Minnesota National Guard Youth Camp is to: Provide a unique and enjoyable opportunity for dependents of the Minnesota National Guard to explore the environment in which they live and be more responsible in maintaining the environment for future generations. Provide a positive experience in a safe and caring environment. Assist youth in gaining an understanding of why their Guard member servers in the National Guard. Help youth cope with the stress and confusion of separation/deployment. During August 1991, 104 youths attended the First Annual Minnesota National Guard Youth Camp. It was a resounding success. Interest in the Youth Camp has increased and this summer 280 campers attended camp.
About This Cause
Youth Camp Program has developed into a Minnesota non-profit organization. The Internal Revenue Service recognizes it as a non-profit organization, and a Board of Directors oversees the planning and conduct of all operations. It solicits, screens and trains volunteers who serve as the staff for all youth camp activities. Most volunteers are active or retired members of the Army or Air National Guard, spouses or dependents. In October 1992, the American Camping Association (ACA) after undergoing a thorough examination during the 1992 camp session, classified Youth Camp as an accredited camp. Youth Camp was the first accredited National Guard Youth Camp in the United States. Since that time Youth Camp underwent inspection for re-accreditation under ACA rules and met the standards.
