Each week of summer Family Camp has a unique theme and offers one 7-day/6-night session (Sunday to Saturday) and two 4-day/3-night sessions (Sunday to Wednesday or Wednesday to Saturday). Due to popular demand, we’re adding a NEW Sports & Games Week, and our former Science, Space, & Sky Week has evolved into Astronomy Week, with a special focus on stargazing and the night sky.

Campership Program
Thanks to the support of generous donors, supporters, and funders, we are able to provide a significant number of Camp Scholarships (“Camperships”) each summer to families who cannot afford the full cost of camp due to financial barriers or circumstantial hardships. Camperships are largely determined by household income and are only available to Oakland residents.
Campership applications can be submitted as part of the camp registration process. Review the Campership Application Instructions for more information on how to apply for a Campership during registration.
Please note that Camperships cannot be combined with discounts or promotions other than Oakland resident rates.
