Summer Camp
Your camper will experience activities such as archery, kayaking, the challenge course and sharing stories by the campfire. In addition to the traditional summer camp activities, programming is also a special blend of social-emotional learning that is part of Sierra Nevada Journeys’ teaching pedagogy. Camp is a place for all youth to be individuals and we meet them “where they are” in their learning and experiences – a learner-centered environment to accommodate different paces and styles of learning and growing. We are an inclusive, innovative and equity-focused community; you can learn more about our approach to equity and inclusion.
