Adventure Awaits You!
Tucked among the wild and scenic Eel River, Redwood Adventure Camp is a place where campers unplug, explore, and grow. Days are filled with outdoor adventure, swimming in the river, hiking forest trails, learning new skills, and taking on challenges together, while evenings bring campfires, stories, and laughter under the stars.
Rooted in Christian values, Redwood Adventure Camp is a welcoming community where campers are encouraged to care for one another, respect creation, and discover their gifts. Through shared experiences, meaningful relationships, and time in nature, campers build confidence, friendships, and memories that last long after summer ends. _________________________________________________________________________

10th & 11th Grades
Boys: July 1–14
Girls: July 15–28
The Adventure program is a two-week program designed to be the culmination in both outdoor challenges as well as teamwork, leadership skills and spiritual development. This program includes advanced camp crafts, outdoor living skills as well as training in survival skills. Training will peak with the campers participating in a 24-hour solo that will allow them to demonstrate these new skills. The campers will also take part in a four-day backpacking trip, an orienteering trip to the ocean, and a high elements ropes course .
The spiritual program is just as challenging as the physical program. The advanced nature of Adventure activities requires intense teamwork and dependability with each individual. Special emphasis on self-awareness, spiritual growth and development of close friendships are all integral aspects of the experience. Adventure/Survival campers are responsible for planning and executing morning prayer.
Applicants need to be in good health for the physically strenuous activities involved. Acceptance will be determined by evaluation of the camper’s previously demonstrated ability to hike well and work harmoniously with others.

Graduate Program
11th & 12th Grades
Dates: June 25–July 2
The Graduate program is the final stage of the camper experience. This co-ed program lasts one week, and is held in the Lost Coast, King Range. Graduate is based on a challenging hiking route that will start in the beautiful coastal mountains and end on the shores of Black Sands Beach. Built into this beautiful hike are exercises to help you explore the possibility of future leadership roles as well as develop and mature your spiritual understanding of yourself and your world.
The groups camp in separate sites but come together in the evenings for campfire revelry as well as spiritual discussion and challenges. This structure allows and encourages healthy social and spiritual interactions between the two groups. Although we consider this program complementary to our CIT program and staffing, you do not have to be a CIT to participate in Graduate, nor do you have to complete Graduate to become a staff member.
