About Camp Lighthouse
Summers should be full of fun, friends, and fearlessness! East Texas Lighthouse for the Blind launched “Camp Lighthouse” to ensure blind and visually impaired high schoolers have an opportunity to safely experience a week of independence, confidence, and connections with friends like them.
During this six-day camp in June, students stay on a college campus and participate in fun and educational activities around the area while making memories and creating lasting relationships.
The 2026 Camp Lighthouse session is scheduled for June 21-26. The application deadline is April 10.
For more information about the program content or application process, please contact Lannette Burlingame, ETLB Program Manager at 903-590-4355, or by email at lburlingame@etxlighthouse.org.
