What is Family Camp? Family Camp, where singles are also welcome, is a camp for all ages - our oldest camper was 103. Family Camp is informal and flexible. The day begins with singing and a Bible story; the day concludes with campfire singing, skits and inspiration. By choice, activities include a giant slide, discussion groups, Bible study, hiking, folk dancing, line dancing, jigsaw puzzles, swimming (and lessons for young children), skits, arts and crafts, pickle ball, softball, volleyball, ...

Canceled - 2023 Camp Lodestar and L.I.T (Leaders In Training)

Sunday, July 16 2023 to Saturday, July 22 2023

Camp Lodestar Canceled for 2023 As we transition back to in-person camp, we have found the need this year to cancel Camp Lodestar, and instead encourage all of those who have registered or planned to register for Lodestar, to instead register for and attend Toyon Camp.

2023 Shasta Family Camp

Saturday, July 29 2023 to Friday, August 04 2023

We have a schedule with events for each day, but we also have free time every day for you to relax. This may be surprising for newcomers because a lot of folks are used to being busy every day, and some folks expect camp to be non-stop activities. You’re welcome to be busy every day at Shasta Family Camp if you’d like, and you’re also welcome to be completely un-busy the whole time. We end the night with campfire, where we sing songs, do skits, and ultimately persuade a musician in the group to...
