Talahi 2023….What’s in a Name!!                                                                                         

We are so excited to be offering another full summer of camps this upcoming summer! Registrations are now live to register for camp this summer! Here is our schedule (all camps are the grade your camper has just completed):

TBD: Spring Cleaning Work Weekend: Come help us wake camp us from it’s winter slumber and get it ready for our ON-SITE camps this upcoming summer! We are excited to have all our youth and family camps back on site, but we need a little help cleaning up from the winter and making sure all of our buildings and outdoor areas are camper ready! This is a free weekend for anyone of any age and any skill set to come put boots on the ground and help out!

June 25-30: CIT Camp (grades 9-11): Being a counselor-in-training (CIT) is a leadership opportunity for high school students. CITs lead younger campers during their camp sessions, helping younger kids make friends, try new things, and have a great time. CIT camp is an opportunity to learn all the skills it takes to be an amazing counselor, from leading songs and games to public speaking, time management and group leadership. Being a CIT is one of the best experiences at Camp Talahi! You must attend this training week to be a CIT for summer 2020. At camp, CITs will be assigned to 1-2 additional camp sessions to volunteer for.

June 30-July 3: Transgender and Gender Diverse Middle School Camp (grades 6-8) Our Transgender Teen Camp was so popular last year, we’ve decided to separate them and have a middle school session and a high school session just for Transgender Teens to enjoy a whole week at camp!

One Night and Day Rates are available as well.

July 14-16: Family Camp: Camp Talahi is a great time for the whole family and friends! Enjoy camp’s beautiful scenery during a laid-back weekend for families of all shapes and sizes. The schedule for family camp is flexible, and our Counselors in Training will be on hand to offer games, crafts, nature hikes, and activities for kids of all ages. There will also be lifeguards on duty and plenty of time to swim and build sand castles, which is always a family camp favorite activity! Families can choose to stay in our modern dorms, go tent camping in the camper’s meadow, or may opt to bring an RV (limited number of outlets available in field). One Night Stay and Day Rates are available as well.

July 16-21: Jr. High Camp (Grades 6-8): Camp Talahi is excited to continue hosting a traditional session specifically for middle schoolers!
