Our traditional, old fashioned summer day camp returns this year! The summer day camp program focuses on the natural relationship between our own interactions and how they affect the surrounding world. We emphasize positivity, creativity and fun within the large community of campers working together and building life-long memories and friendships.


In small trail groups campers discover Walden West’s natural beauty, its creeks, redwood forest, nature trails, pond, and garden. Activities include hiking, archery, arts and crafts, games, gardening, sports, singing, nature study, and the reopening of the pool! We’re also excited to reopen the C.O.R.E. (climbing wall and challenge course) as part of the day camp program that builds self-confidence, physical coordination, and the spirit of teamwork.


There will be a BBQ dinner, campfire, night hike, and sleepover for all participants on Thursday evening. Thursday dinner, Friday breakfast and lunch are included in registration.
