At Bear Valley Summer Day Camp their mission is to provide opportunities for children to learn and grow in the High Sierra mountain playground. They utilize a values-based curriculum with outdoor activities and educational experiences to nurture a lifetime of healthy choices and self-confidence, while respecting and protecting the great outdoors. Camps are organized by week, with a different theme each week, so kids who want to attend multiple weeks get new experiences.

Besides recreational activities, campers enjoy social-emotional learning, and team building in eight weeks of camp for three different age groups:

  • Cub Camp (ages 4-6),
  • Grizzly Camp (ages 7-11)
  • Kodiak Camp (ages 12 and up)
