In Spring of 1975, Evelyn Welborn and Pat Lyons began discussions with Jonny and Pat Wells about creating a camp for special needs children. In the summer of 1975 the first camp was held at J Bar J Ranch just outside of Sealy, Texas. These special memories continued until the last camp week at J Bar J was held in 1997. Since 1998, the Camp That Love Built Moved to Camp For All in Burton, Texas and every year we hold a week camp for individuals with spina bifida. We make memories and experiences to last a lifetime while creating important friendships.
