Memory Camp at Moon Beach

A place of connection, comfort, and joy

Nestled at Moon Beach in St. Germain, Wisconsin, this multi-day retreat welcomes individuals with mild to moderate dementia, along with their caregivers and families. Hosted by the Fox Valley Memory Project and the Respite Care Association of Wisconsin, the camp offers a peaceful setting where participants can relax, engage, and simply enjoy being together.

Camp Experience

The camp offers a stigma-free environment where participants can enjoy traditional camp activities while leaving the dementia diagnosis “at the top of the hill.”

Activities include:

• Singing and poetry creation
• Campfires and s’mores
• Beach yoga and swimming
• Fishing, kayaking, and canoeing
• Guided nature hikes and visits to a music garden
• Jigsaw puzzles and card games

Support and Respite

Each family is paired with a trained respite volunteer, allowing caregivers to take breaks while their loved ones are engaged in safe, enriching activities.
