Extraordinary people deserve an extraordinary camp
Founded in 2013, Camp Conquest has served the disability community for over a decade.
Join us as we are working to expand and serve more campers, missionaries, and their families.
What we do.
Camp Conquest is one of less than two dozen camps in the entire United States that offers people of any age, any diagnosis, any disability to have a true summer camp experience.
To truly understand what we do, you have to experience it. You have to watch a person that has been confined to a chair their whole life go down a 600' zipline. Watch a 14 year old young man form a friendship with a nonverbal young man with autism and it change both of their lives.
What do we do....... we create a place where God does extraordinary things through people regardless of their ability, age, or diagnosis.
Where we are going.
Camp Conquest has been blessed to be in ministry for 12 years as of 2024. We still have much more work to do. In 2019 God blessed us with our own property in Millington TN. Since then many improvements have been made including our 600' zipline, improved sensory room, camp store, and more.
​
However, we have many more friends that want what we offer. There are over 40,000 individuals living with disabilities just in the immediate Memphis area. Our waitlist for summer camp continues to stay as long as the number of campers we serve and continues to grow every year.

"Camp Conquest is a true ministry. The fellowship, devotional and worship time, and cross walk are her favorites. We love the new opportunities that she is able to participate in. She is paired with wonderful individuals who are truly rooted in Christ each camp."
- Anonymous Camper Parent 2024
"As a first-time camper at Camp Conquest, this means so much more than words can describe. It's local and affordable. This camp holds a special place in the camper's heart because he experienced so many different things for the first time."
- Anonymous Camper Parent 2024
"A chance for our son to experience some autonomy, make new friends and have experiences and make memories that are his alone, just like all our other children have been able to do at various away camps."

WHO WE SERVE
OUR CAMPERS
​Our campers come from a broad background, from many different locations and with a wide range of disabilities. We aim to serve all ages and all disabilities. We have campers with diagnosis including but not limited to physical, mental, and/or verbal disabilities.
Each camper at Camp Conquest is paired with a missionary (volunteer). Our missionaries give time out of their lives to serve and make camp special for all of our campers. They help make camp accessible for our campers. This may include transferring their camper into a wheel chair harness to go down the zipline, or talking about their favorite marvel character for hours with their new found friend. Our missionaries that come to serve at Camp Conquest are truly some of the best around and without fail they come to serve but find that they leave gaining a greater impact on themselves than they expected.
We serve campers from all over the country, just this year we served campers from as far as 700 miles from Millington. If you are hesitant about sending your camper or your missionary, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We hold the highest standards of safety to protect all of our participants and we are very pleased to be able to say that we have been 12 years without an accident or incident.

CAMPER FAMILIES
In addition to the campers having fun, we want parents and caregivers to find respite while their child is at camp. Many families choose to go on vacation during this time. Parents can rest knowing the Camp Conquest staff and volunteers are trained prior to campers arriving at camp. In addition, Camp Conquest runs background checks on all volunteers, leadership, and staff over the age of 18.
Our medical team is led by a board-certified nurse practitioner, who is also the co-founder of Camp Conquest. The medical team meticulously reviews each child’s medical record to ensure a continuum of care and that all activities for each camper are medically appropriate. ​Each cabin has an assigned medical team member to distribute medications and oversee medical needs.
If you have questions about your camper's medical needs, please contact mark@campconquest.com. Our health director is a certified nurse practitioner with many years of experience and can answer any questions you may have.
