Welcome to Camp Ponderosa
"Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these."
Mark 10:14
2024 Summer Schedule
NEW CAMP DATES COMING SOON!
The Salvation Army has more than 400 after school programs in the United States.
Our first priority is to meet basic human needs, but we recognize the importance of programs that go beyond the basics of food, shelter, clothing and safety. In addition to meeting basic needs, The Salvation Army strives to provide programs that will help children thrive during crucial developmental years ? from after school programs and summer camps, to childcare and toys at Christmas.
The Salvation Army Helps Kids Be Kids
Summer Camps for Kids
Many children from low-income families rarely experience life outside their immediate neighborhood. That’s why The Salvation Army’s annual summer programs for kids are so important.
Every year, thousands of kids of all ages get a fresh perspective on life as they meet new friends, discover new activities, and get a taste of the great outdoors. As campers learn to swim, play sports, create music, make art, and scout, their trained counselors help them navigate the complicated emotions and struggles often associated with their lives back home.
