Camp High Hopes in Sioux City celebrates 10th year
September 26th, 2022 by admin
Sioux City’s “Camp High Hopes” is celebrating its 10th anniversary. Sarah Morgan is the camp’s executive director.
Archery and canoeing are among the activities for campers. The facility opened in the fall of 2012. Morgan says there’s been a lot of growth since then and new programs are being added this fall and next spring.
A crowd gathered at the facility Sunday for a celebration that featured games, a fire truck — and two birthday cakes. Morgan says there were smiles all around.
The Camp High Hopes property covers 90 acres and includes a lake and a lodge. Fundraising for the camp began in 2004 and it opened eight years later. Campers come from Iowa, Nebraska and South Dakota.
