Our Needs
Elks Camp Grassick is extremely grateful for the support of generous people who make it possible for us to serve our special campers. In assessing the needs of our camp facilities and the population we serve, we have several upcoming projects planned including a kitchen and dining hall expansion and a new therapy/classroom building. Our current project is the construction of a new bathroom/dorm/storm shelter facility. The bathroom portion of this project will allow us to better serve our campers with the highest needs by providing larger shower stalls to accommodate wheelchairs and shower chairs. This is a necessity to make showering safer and more accessible for our campers. New dorms will allow us to grow and provide more living space for campers and staff. Lastly, a ground level storm shelter will provide a safe place that is easily accessible to campers with mobility challenges.

We're not your ordinary camp...
Elks Camp Grassick is a summer camp for children and adults with physical and intellectual disabilities. In 1947, Camp Grassick was purchased by the North Dakota Elks and has been run as their major project since that time. Each summer, Camp Grassick serves close to 200 children and adults with special needs through 6 different camping sessions. Elks Camp Grassick provides therapies such as reading intervention, speech and language and occupational therapy along with recreation, crafts and waterfront activities. Our mission is to provide a summer camp experience where children and adults can learn, grow, and build friendships while fostering independence in a supportive and accepting environment.
