FOLC’s Summer Adventure Camp
As summer fast approaches, so does another year of Summer Adventure Camp. This will be the 12th year that we have been taking local and visiting youth, ages 4-13, into the diverse ecosystems of the Lost Coast region! We love exploring the great outdoors with the children – and each age group, as well as each individual – experiences nature in different ways.
We pride ourselves on offering a quality program and being able to provide full or partial scholarships for families who need assistance. More families than ever have asked for scholarships this year. Therefore, we respectfully reach out to the local community to help support Summer Adventure Camp. $275 is the cost for a full week of camp. For children 10-13 years old who decide to participate in one of the optional camp outs, the cost is $325. If you feel that you can contribute to this program, any amount is much appreciated and put to good use! Donations can be made out to Friends of the Lost Coast and mailed to P.O. Box 69, Whitethorn, CA 95589. You can also donate online with a credit/debit card – or via Paypal or Venmo. Please be sure to include a note with your online donation, stating it is for Summer Adventure Camp or SAC.
Thank you for your consideration as we look forward to another great camp season. With whatever support you can provide – whether it’s monetarily or with positive thoughts – we will create lasting memories together. “I wish summer camp was forever!” – Petra, 5 years old
