Summer Camp
Soak in the sun, fresh air, and farm life activities
Presented by Providence Health & Services, Sauvie Island Center’s Farm Camp is outdoor experience where children are outside all day, every day soaking up the fresh air and sunshine. Each day at camp is a new adventure as we explore and learn on our site at Topaz Farm.
Through traditional camp activities—like games, camp songs, arts and crafts and more—we’ll focus on different parts of the Sauvie Island Center curriculum including:
Two weeks through our partner, Catlin Gabel and two weeks directly through SIC.
Camps through Sauvie Island Center
Week 1: July 10-14*
Week 2: July 17-21*
*If/when a week of camp is full we will place registrations on a waitlist and will be in touch if spaces become available.
2023 Summer Camp Scholarships
This year we are trying something new, we will be offering camp cost as a sliding scale. We consider anything $249 and under a ‘scholarship’. Folks that are able to pay more help offset the costs of those that are unable to pay the full amount. Thus helping us to cover the actual cost of camp (paying staff, materials, site fees, ect.).
We are only able to accommodate scholarship requests for one week of camp at this time. If you would like to request scholarships for both weeks for the same child(ren), we are happy to put you on a hold list and will notify you if we have scholarship funding available closer to camp.
Partner Camp Weeks
We will also offer 2 weeks of camp through partner, Catlin Gabel. Registration, payment and transportation will be handled by Catlin Gabel. With the exception of transportation, this week of camp will follow the same curriculum and schedule. For more information on this partner week please visit Catlin Gabel Farm Camp.
Week 1: July 24-28
Week 2: July 31-August 4
