Registration information for 2025
SNC Camp Registration will open on March 5 at 8am for Members, and March 12 at 8am for non-members.
Registration is online only. Both weeks will be the same in their agendas, please be aware of this if you are registering your camper for both weeks.
Camp groups are based on the grade the camper is entering in the upcoming school year. Campers in the PreK-Kindergarten group can be no younger than 3, and must be potty trained.
Please confirm with your camper that they are excited to be in an outdoor camp. While we do our best to meet camper interests in our day plan, if your camper is not interested in a primarily-outdoor camp with hiking (sometimes in high heat) this may not be the camp for them. Be aware that if your camper doesn’t want to follow the day plan, they may be sent home for the day.
Camp spots are given on a first-come, first-served basis. There are limited spots in each week’s groups. If confirmed for camp, you will be prompted to submit camper paperwork in your confirmation email. Please fill out this paperwork within one week. Filling this out ensures counselors have the correct preparations for your camper’s safety. Failure to submit payment and paperwork by this deadline may result in the forfeiture of your camp spot. If paying by check, please mail or make plans to drop off your check within one week.

Our Summer Camps are built with students in mind. Our high-quality and experienced instructors specialize in making learning about nature safe and fun. Students will learn about a new nature topic each day, explore Cache National Forest, and discover all of what our over 1.6 million acre backyard has to offer!
