We are a retreat and learning center to assist veterans with addressing the challenges, fears, and stigma they face during and after serving in our Armed Services. Providing them the opportunity to get away and reconnect by attending retreats and offering skills for employment, recognizing the symptoms and triggers of military occupational stresses, develop coping mechanisms to regain a sense of normalcy and relaxation for our returning veterans. There is no place like Montana – with wide open spacious, immense wildlife, historic roots, and so much more. Experience Montana at Camp Ponderosa in Swan Lake Valley. Camp Ponderosa is an outreach of Northwest Montana Stand Down & Food Pantry. This organization is dedicated to providing a “helping hand up” to veterans and their families. Be a part of something bigger at Camp Ponderosa while still enjoying all the attractions of the state. Take a hike, try your luck at hunting and fishing, ride out on the trails, and so much more.
