Camp Fairfax
Families signing up for Camp Fairfax this summer must sign up for the 3 consecutive weeks based on safety recommendations and new protocols during Covid 19.
Camp Fairfax is a homegrown local camp for school aged youth going on its 11th year! During this special time of year campers and their counselors focus on the unique aspects of our little town. This simple and old style summer camp explores arts and crafts, the natural environment, recreational games under the redwood trees and running through sprinklers on the ballfield. We place heavy emphasis on community building scaffolding age ranges so campers can learn from each other and build confidence through collaboration. Campers work in small groups to create skits and learn old school camp songs that remain part of our tradition from summer to summer. We work with local businesses to bring the youth fun field trips. This summer we will only have guest visitors to our camp such as the Wildcare Nature Van. In addition, we have a variety of specialized classes that happen throughout the summer including, storytelling, yoga and more.

Counselor in Training (CIT) ProgramDue to the limitation of maximum participants allowed under the Covid 19 guidelines, our CIT program will be reduced this summer but we encourage all to still apply. We will be in touch if we have space to add you.
The Counselor in Training (CIT) program offers unique opportunities for developing personal and professional skills while encouraging you to enjoy the natural beauty and wonder of our sweet town. The program is designed to help create a scaffolding of ages from our community whereby young campers can connect and collaborate with older counselors in training. It is important that CIT demonstrate positive role modeling, leadership, communication and exemplary understanding of the supervision of children in a camp setting.
The CIT program is for 12 – 15 year olds—middle school and early high school students.
