River Camp Rangers at Owl Hollow

Is your 6th-8th grader ready for an amazing week down by the river? River Camp Rangers at Owl Hollow, held at our newly completed riverfront site next to the River Center, is a camp that's just for them. Each day they will learn leadership skills, participate in games that promote team building and communication with their peers, and complete hands-on science and engineering challenges-- not to mention camp classics like canoeing, swim time, and arts and crafts. Sample activities include building a solar oven to cook s'mores, bottle rockets, and taking part in classic low ropes course style (groundwork only) teambuilding. Our lively and experienced staff will engage your children in activities that will encourage personal growth as they make new friends, try new things, and reconnect with the natural world. A River Camp 2025 T-shirt is included in the cost of registration. Ages: Entering 6th - 8th grades
Time: 9:15 am - 3:45 pm, Monday - Friday
Location: Owl Hollow (11631 Old Friant Rd, Fresno) is located next to the River Center but uses a different access point. A map will be sent upon registration, and signs directing parents to the Owl Hollow entrance will be posted along Old Friant Road.
Cost: $355 ($305 session fees, $50 non-refundable deposit). River Parkway Trust members at the $100 annual membership level or $10 per month Sustaining Members or higher receive a 10% discount on each registration; discount code must be entered during registration; discounts will not be given retroactively. To maintain competitive rates and hire the best staff possible, River Camp fees increase in direct proportion with CA state minimum wage. Partial scholarships at multiple levels are available to increase financial accessibility and inclusivity in River Camp programs. To apply for a scholarship, please use the scholarship application link below.
