Skylake Yosemite Camp runs an overnight summer program for children aged 7 to 15, delivering a traditional sleepaway camp experience on Bass Lake within the Sierra National Forest near Yosemite, California. Established in 1945, the camp emphasizes outdoor activities and personal growth in a setting designed to separate campers from routine pressures associated with school and technology. Life at the camp centers on group living and cooperation, facilitated by trained and carefully selected counselors and a broad mix of recreational, artistic, and outdoor activities. Operating in the education sector, the program serves families seeking a structured, supervised environment where children can build communication, teamwork, confidence, and self-expression through peer interaction and hands-on experiences. Based in Wishon, California, Skylake Yosemite Camp is a small organization reflecting its intimate, long-standing community approach to outdoor learning and growth.
