Welcome
I'd like to take a moment to welcome your family to the 2013 season of River Camp. We are looking forward to another wonderful summer down by the San Joaquin. At River Camp, we connect children to the wonders of nature and the river. For our staff there is nothing more rewarding than watching a child's face light up after they've caught their first tadpole or experienced the freedom of canoeing on their own. River Camp provides a safe place for campers of all ages to spend time exploring, playing, making friends, and learning how to work together as a team. After a day at camp you can expect your child to come home full of stories about the day's adventures. I believe this is going to be our best summer yet. If you have any questions feel free to contact me at 559-248-8480 ext. 107 or This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . See you soon by the San Joaquin River.
