Camp Gratitude is a FREE week-long camping experience for military and veteran families to relax and have fun while building strength and cohisevness. We do this to honor and thank these families for their service to our country. The camp is for any military or veteran family that has experienced deployment .
Just because veterans have returned home from their deployment does not mean they are home safe. Veterans suffer disproportionately high rates of unemployment, homelessness, alcohol and drug abuse, divorce and suicide. Veteran families need help coping with these issues and adjusting to life following return from deployment. Recognizing this need, Camp Gratitude provides camp participants access to professional resources to give them a way to ease back into every day family life following deployment.
The 2025 Camp Gratitude event will be held June 20th to the 27th at the "Veterans Camp Ground on Big Marine Lake" in Marine on St Croix, Minnesota. Accommodations at the Veterans Camp Ground include newer air conditioned, fully furnished and equipped cabins with flat screen TV's and wi-fi. Camp Gratitude is FREE for the whole veteran family.
To apply, please submit your family's application found on the 2025APPLICATIONS tab. The 2025 event is limited to 14 veteran families at The Veterans Camp Ground.
