Now accepting applications for children ages 8-16.
Where Kids Grow In All The Right Ways
High above the stress and chatter of our plugged-in and fast-paced world, a different kind of a summer camp experience awaits your child: a Christian Adventure Camp where kids spend two weeks having the time of their lives, feeling perfectly at home away from home, and grow in character, skills, relationships, and faith.
Welcome to Yosemite Sierra Summer Camp.
Since 1973, Yosemite Sierra Summer Camp has been partnering with parents in fostering their child’s growth. Our deep commitment to whole-child development through unplugged play and outdoor adventure provides the unique environment for kids to explore the beauty of the Sierras, try new activities, and discover a deeper sense of self and faith. It’s no wonder that just two weeks at YSSC surrounded by supportive staff and new and old friends alike become a springboard for life.
