This free camp experience gives teens 14–17 years old from the U.S. and

session with a guide dog mobility instructor, a game session, a private
Facebook group to keep the fun going through the week and lots more!
Presenters include Leader Dog O&M instructors, Leader Dog guide dog
mobility instructors and some special surprise guests! Participants will

win other prizes.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want;
blindness is not what holds you back.
