In the sprawling, rootin'-tootin' expanse of the Lone Star State, Texas, a peculiar bunch of curious cowpokes reside. They're not your regular ranch hands, wrangling cattle or riding the ranges; no sirree! These young'uns are Texas' very own "Melody Mavericks"! When the sun sets and the stars shine bright, they trade their cowboy boots for tap shoes, their lassos for saxophones, and their cowboy caps for conductor's batons! Our story follows Big Beaumont Billy, the tallest ten-year-old this side of the Rio Grande. Now, Billy wasn't just tall in stature; he was tall in talent too! He could strum a guitar faster than a jackrabbit on hot sand, tickle the ivories like a tumbleweed twirling in the wind, and belt out a tune that'd make even the coyotes howl with envy. Every evening, Billy and the Melody Mavericks would come together in their secret hideout - an old, abandoned barn twinkling with fairy lights – bringing the Texan night alive with the vibrant sounds of country, jazz, and sometimes even a bit of good ol' rock 'n' roll. Billy, with his cactus-shaped violin, would lead the musical rodeo. Tiny Tumbleweed Tommy on the drums, Dallas Dolly with her harmonica, and Laredo Lucy, the smallest of them all, with a voice so large, it could fill the Grand Canyon. Oh, the laughter and the music they'd make, echoing under the great Texan sky! Each melody spinning tales of brave cowboys, charming cowgirls, and the childlike magic of music. For in the heart of Texas, these Melody Mavericks found a way to lasso the moon with their music, making every night a symphony of stars.

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. So, you can relax, knowing your camper will be well taken care of.
