Free from the confines of disease, illness, or disability, children discover that they can just be kids! How does this happen? Victory Junction is a medically-safe, yet exhilarating camp, that challenges children who have a serious medical condition to try things they never imagined possible. As they conquer activities like zip lining and archery or experience bowling, fishing, or swimming, children build confidence that will shape how they view the rest of their lives.
Themed around NASCAR racing, the camp echoes the sights, sounds, and feel of a real racetrack. Its creative architecture houses a universally-accessible water park, miniature golf course, ropes course, tandem zip line, bowling alley and paddle boats. Be ready for the unforgettable.

SeriousFun Children’s Network is a growing global community of independently managed and financed camps and programs creating opportunities for children with serious illnesses and their families to reach beyond illness and discover joy, confidence, and a new world of possibilities, always free of charge.
Victory Junction was the dream of Adam Petty, a fourth generation race car driver from the famous Petty family and a rising star in the sport. Adam’s passion for racing was equaled only by his compassion for others, especially children. Between races, he often visited children in pediatric hospitals. After his tragic death in a racing accident, Adam’s family and friends came together to realize his dream of a camp to serve children with serious medical conditions. Adam’s vision sprung to life when Victory Junction opened its gates in 2004.
