This is a hard review to write but I think it's important to share for future families…read more I was very excited for my son to have his first 2 week away at camp experience. It was heartbreaking to hear about his experience when he came home. There was active bullying throughout the camp and no adult interference with that or redirection. Swear words were common without any redirection as was inappropriate conversations and behaviors. One thing that really bothered me was that nudity was acceptable including in the showers with camp counselors. This was not advertised or talked about. It was very disturbing to get a letter from my son talking about his camp counselors penis. I did connect with the Director when I did receive that letter who explained to me that they have a locker room type open set up there in the showers and that the kids are given an opportunity to shower by themselves (although my son said he didn't get that option), if they're more comfortable. I don't think it really hit me how much that bothered me until my son came home and we talked about it further and he shared his own discomfort. Even more bothersome for me was hearing that campers were often naked hanging out casually where he slept. These were his cabin mates who were of the same sex as him but again it was still bothersome to hear that the camp counselors didn't ask kids to put clothes on or consider everybody's comfortability. I do understand that nudity may be a non-issue for some but not for all, and not when it's a bunch of strangers. Lastly my son shared with me that his counselor talked about kissing a girls boobs and for me that was also extremely disturbing and not ok. I had such high hopes for this camp and was so grateful to receive a scholarship for my son to attend, but unfortunately it turned out to be a mistake. There was not appropriate supervision or adult redirection to help kids navigate. As time has gone by my son continues to share stories that just break my heart and upset me that I sent him to this camp. We will not ever go back to this camp. If you have a younger kid, I would really suggest thinking twice before sending them here. Two weeks is a long time for a kid to navigate uncomfortability, bullying, and exposure to inappropriate language/ concepts and ideas.

The camp community truly is a family, generations of kids attend and then send their kids. It's a back-to-basics type place. Nothing like a competitive sports camp. Every afternoon all the campers swim in the "swim hole", which is part of a beautiful river. In the morning kids can choose from several activities including crafts, horse riding, music etc. The camp is located in the "Trinity Alps."

ZERO Stars. I had my daughter (14 y.o.) enrolled as a junior counselor for 3 separate weeks. This…read morewas her first time (first day) at camp. She was accused of blatantly disregarding a camp counselor telling her not to walk to my car vs wait to be picked up and was subsequently kicked out of camp for all 3 weeks. She was devastated. She did not understand why she was kicked out of camp. I had mistakenly thought camp provided lunch. She had no food or water all day. No one noticed and she was too shy to ask. She was starving and thirsty by the end of the day and probably feeling a bit desperate to get to me. She told me her counselor clearly did not like her. She adamantly denies disregarding her camp counselor and said she thought the counselor said "OK". She has never been in trouble at school or anywhere else for that matter. Camp was an attempt to get her out of her shell. It completely backfired on me. Now she is home alone all summer because I have to work. Their punishment to eject her for their perceived blatant disrespect is extreme and they did not take into consideration how this would affect her emotionally. The best course of action would have been a discussion with her and I and an opportunity to correct the problem. I absolutely DO NOT recommend this camp. I received 1 phone call from the camp director and 1 email from another counselor attacking her character, both outrageous, unkind and misconstrued interpretations of my daughters shyness, taking her social awkwardness for an attitude problem. I have reached out further and they are ignoring my letters. I also included the board of directors. No responses for over a week now. Big huge "F-" for Pal Camp.

I also have one other point of reference for the place, some of the more excentric self possessed kids at my high school in Berkeley had attended Camp Winnarainbow... The camp itself was founded by Wavy Gravy, who contrary to what some young folk might think, is more then a Ben and Jerrys ice cream flavor - or at least equal to an ice cream flavor, i mean a good ice cream. Wavy was a clown back in the days when he was MCing woodstock and running a pig for president. The camp started out focusing on clown skills, and now has grown to a full fledged performing arts camp. The kids will learn juggling, stilt walking, face makeup, magic, unicycle riding, acrobatics, dance, acting, etc. There is, as expected, a focus on creativity and fun through it all... Also note that it is not only for kids. The also offer a one week "adult camp" where us old folk can learn to be kids again, at least for a couple of days.

Absolutely love how perfect it is for under age 5. The front room has some things for older kids. It's nice how it's basically all one giant room so if you're going alone with multiple children it's definitely manageable. They even have hot coffee (Keurig) and tea for kids. My only complaint is the sensory area (the busy boards were placed a little too high for the kids to reach). But overall, this place is a MUST. $6/person. Under 2 are free. Definitely affordable. Thank you!!!
