SUMMER CAMP

Help us change lives this summer!

Send a Child to Camp

The Salvation Army Memphis offers enriching summer camps for children of all ages, focusing on comprehensive youth development. Our camps, including Camp Paradise Valley and Camp Hope, feature a diverse daily schedule with both outdoor and indoor activities. Kids can enjoy sports, small-scale farming, music, art, and archery, catering to various interests and age groups. Art camp enthusiasts will find plenty of creative outlets, while families can rest assured their children are engaged in safe, educational, and fun activities. We also offer residential camps for a full immersion experience. Our programs in Memphis, Collierville, and the city of Memphis are designed to foster personal growth and community spirit. Join us this summer to make a positive impact on young lives.

Children experiencing severe poverty and displacement sometimes have serious issues that create challenges and barriers, preventing them from attending and assimilating into traditional camps and programs. 

WE FIGHT TO CHANGE THAT REALITY FOR AS MANY CHILDREN AS POSSIBLE IN MEMPHIS.

That’s why we offer two Summer Camp programs:

Camp Paradise Valley:

Provides an opportunity for our campers, ages 7 to 17, to get outside of the city, breathe some fresh air and embark on a trail to self-discovery. Throughout their stay, campers get to enjoy a variety of indoor and outdoor activities. Campers can experience sports, small-scale farming, wildlife, rock wall climbing, music, art and archery.

Dale Hollow Lake, on the Kentucky/Tennessee border, provides a multitude of opportunities for our campers to get up close and personal with nature! Boating, fishing and hiking are all on the list of fun to-dos. Campers also have an option to become “seekers” who have decided to change their life through a personal relationship with God.

Camp Hope:

Did you know that the equivalent of one month of a child’s overall learning is lost over the summer break? It takes six weeks of review by teachers in the new year to get a class back to where it was in May. And it only takes as few as two to three hours a week to prevent this learning loss and start our campers back to school better prepared than ever before.

So, not only will our kids be playing sports, creating music and art, they will be learning skills needed to prepare them for their next school year through daily offerings of interactive education, technology and computer skills.

(Camp Hope is only for children enrolled in our residential programs at the Purdue Center of Hope.)


Since one in four children in our community face hunger daily, we also provide two meals a day, plus snacks to combat food insecurity.
