Yosemite Sierra Summer Camp

Overview

Yosemite Sierra Summer Camp program and outcomes center on our two-week long sessions. Organized into cabin groups of one counselor and up to 7 campers of similar age, children participate in developmentally appropriate activities. Among the many activities that await your child at YSSC, some of the most memorable are the simplest bonding experiences where our trained counselors encourage kids to embrace the joys of life: face painting, costumes, defeating the “pirates” who stole their treasure, and running through forests trying to capture the other team’s flag. These are the magical moments that have become lifetime memories for generations of YSSC since 1973.

We create an environment where kids grow the skills they’ll lean on throughout the coming year– and their lives in the years beyond. We aspire to create more than a place to get away, but a formative experience that empowers your child to become their best selves, navigate our complex world, and discover God’s love and voice in their lives in a personal way. The real impact of a youth camp is children growing skills that last a lifetime.
