Respect for Law Camp
Respect for Law Camp is a 4-day, 3-night youth camp designed to build positive relationships between young people and the first responders who serve their community. Led by the Fort Myers Police Department, Fort Myers Fire Department, and other local community organizations, the camp gives youth the opportunity to learn, engage, and experience firsthand what it means to serve and protect their community.
Throughout the camp, participants take part in hands-on activities, educational classes, team-building exercises, and meaningful interactions with local first responders. Youth learn about important topics such as CPR and Stop the Bleed, internet safety, bullying prevention, alcohol and drug awareness, and personal safety.
Campers also get an inside look at the daily responsibilities of local first responders, including the various roles, equipment, and specialized services they provide to the community. By bringing youth and first responders together in a positive environment, Respect for Law Camp helps build trust, encourage open communication, promote respect, and strengthen the connection between our youth and their community heroes.
The goal is simple: educate, empower, and create lasting positive relationships—one young person at a time.
