about our camps

Royal Family Kids' Camps of Yamhill County are overnight summer camps for children, ages 7 to 11, who come from challenging family circumstances. We provide them with a week of positive memories where they can feel safe, have fun, and be unconditionally loved - all in the great outdoors!  Preference is given to those children in state-assigned living, such as foster care or group homes.
