Welcome to the official Facebook home of Minnesota's Camp Ripley!
Camp Ripley is a 53,000-acre regional training facility for our military, federal, state, local and civilian communities. Community interests across the spectrum of Minnesota life utilize Camp Ripley for its resources, expertise, and commitment to environmental stewardship.
The facilities, ranges and natural resources were utilized in 2011 for important support efforts such as military deployment ceremonies and a “Welcome Home” event for Vietnam veterans, as well as community outreach events like fishing contests, motorcycle tribute rides, and an open house.
In addition to being a critical factor in the successful pre-mobilization training for numerous military units, Camp Ripley served as a training location for the Minnesota Department of Public Safety, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, and the Minnesota Department of Transportation.
Camp Ripley continues to develop its already strong community partnerships through Morrison and Crow Wing County Beyond the Yellow Ribbon Networks, a well-established Citizens Committee, the Army Compatible Use Buffer program and a strategic marketing plan.
To provide the best support, facilities and resources enabling customers to train in a realistic environment, while maintaing positive community relations.
