Camp Thunderbird: Inclusion in Action | Orlando News

For 55 years, Camp Thunderbird in Florida has been a joyful, inclusive haven for kids and adults with developmental disabilities, offering a transformative week of friendship, independence, and fun. Nestled in Wekiwa Springs State Park, this legendary camp provides accessible activities like swimming, sports, and crafts — all designed to celebrate every camper’s unique abilities. It’s not just about games — it’s a lifeline for caregivers, giving them a much-needed break while their loved ones thrive, make new friends, and shine. The week culminates in the spirited “Thunder Cup,” a celebration of inclusion where everyone competes, participates, and belongs. For longtime camper Sammy Bell, it’s more than camp — it’s home.
