Summer Adventure Camp

Camp is $300 for the week, but payment will not be collected until your child has been awarded a spot from the lottery in early May. Once we award the spot, you will have 1 week to pay in full. In an effort to keep our general camp pricing low, we no longer offer a season pass discount, however a camp t-shirt will be included with the registration fee!

We do a lottery-style system allowing for as many campers to attend as possible. Simply fill our your preferences on this form then we'll contact you in early May to confirm all campers and provide a registration code/instructions to give payment. Please submit one form for each child. Child must be age 6-10 by July 1st. Please note that there is a 1 week limit per child.

All camp registrations are final once paid, though you may always call the Children's Center at (208) 263-8824 with any concerns.

Each week, campers can look forward to climbing the rock wall twice, the trampoline jumper twice, ride the lift at least twice, hiking, games in the Village, a trip to the Cranky Jennings Sluice Box, a hot dog BBQ on Fridays and much more!

Yes! We will pick up your camper in a small Schweitzer bus at the Schweitzer Park & Ride lot (the Red Barn) at the base of the mountain at 8:00am and bring them back at 4:00pm.

Everyone makes friends at Schweitzer Camp! You'll have fun making new friends.

Most of the time, all the campers stay together. However, depending on activities, we may divide into groups. For example: if we are going on a hike, one group may go on a long hike and one may go on a shorter hike.

Unfortunately, we are very strict with age as all of our activities are specific to the physical and mental abilities of ages 6-10. We spend a lot of time doing physical activities, so please consider your child's capabilities if they have recently turned 6. Campers will hike upwards of 3 miles on a given day.

We offer campers a few snacks each day and provide a hot dog BBQ lunch on Friday, however, please pack lunch for Monday - Thursday and additional snacks if your child is a picky eater or going through a growth spurt!

Rain or shine, campers will still enjoy the benefits of having fun in nature with what our mountain has to offer! Please dress for the weather accordingly.

Safety of campers is our number one priority. Specific protocols have been outlined for many situations including chairlift rides and hiking. Further specifics are outlined for you upon registration confirmation.
