In the vast, sun-baked plains of the Lone Star State, where armadillos roam and cowboys line-dance, a group of kids are turning Texas into a sports utopia. Every day, they gather at Sportsfield, a place so full of laughter, energy, and wild escapades that even the armadillos pause to watch. Yes, these kids, known as the 'Sportsfield Bandits,' are as Texas-tough and fun-loving as they come. Meet Billy "The Dynamo" Dawson, a ten-year-old with a cowboy hat permanently perched on his head. He can toss a football faster than a roadrunner fleeing from a coyote. Sally "Twinkle Toes" Anderson dances around soccer opponents with the grace of a prancing prairie pony. And let's not forget about the 'Griffin Twins,' Ricky and Vicky, who can hit a baseball right over the Rio Grande. These kids are the heart and soul of Sportsfield. The Bandits play under the watchful eye of their coach, Mr. Tumbleweed, a tumbleweed turned human by an old Texan wizard for his love of sports. He wears cowboy boots that are a size too large and a hat wider than any of the longhorns. Mr. Tumbleweed’s mustache, as wild as a West Texas wind, twitches in delight every time the Bandits score a point. His laughter, as hearty as a southwestern barbecue, resonates throughout Sportsfield, encouraging the kids to have as much fun as they possibly can. So, if you ever find yourself in Texas, follow the laughter and energy, and you'll arrive at Sportsfield - a place where Texan kids, armadillos, and a tumbleweed-turned-human run wild, turning every game into an unforgettable adventure.

Since 1947, we have been offering a unique residential camping experience for individuals with disabilities. At Camp Summit, we focus on what our campers can do, rather than what they can't. We offer a variety of traditional camp activities, all of which are adapted to each individual's needs and abilities. Our facilities are completely barrier-free, and our staff is not only well-trained, but also deeply caring. Campers are grouped by age, allowing them to build friendships within their peer groups, all while having a great time and embarking on new adventures. Situated on a beautiful 460-acre plot in Paradise, Texas, just north of the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex, Camp Summit is the ideal location for a safe and fun camping experience. We are proud to be accredited by the American Camp Association and licensed as a Youth Camp in the State of Texas. Our campers may have physical challenges, developmental delays, dual-sensory impairments, or multiple disabilities. However, we welcome all campers, regardless of the severity of their disabilities, as long as we can medically meet their needs. We fully understand the concerns you may have about your child's safety and well-being, which is why we have an on-site medical staff and up-to-date nursing facilities. At Camp Summit, your child is in the best of hands. Our priority is not just to provide an enjoyable camping experience, but also to ensure the health and safety of all our campers, irrespective of their medical needs.
