"From the moment they board the camp bus together in Paso Robles, these kids are outside. Set on a protected 260-acre oak woodland, this 80-year-old camp offering keeps kids outdoors and active. Campers range from first grade to tenth and are divided across five sites. Younger kids can expect twice-a-day pool time, along with activities that run the gamut from hikes and geocaching to group games and skits. Older kids also have opportunities for team building and leadership training. A screened dining room is used for meals, but everything from sleeping to showers (leave your hot water dreams at home) happens underneath the open sky."
