Detail: Located just 81 miles northeast of Los Angeles, YMCA Camp E.L.K. and Coulter Pines, offer unique opportunities for groups, outdoor education and traditional resident camping. At Camp E.L.K. and Camp Coulter Pines we believe every camper should have opportunities to: Participate actively in a community in which they are accepted for who they are; Receive guidance and support in setting and achieving new goals; Learn new skills; Increase self-awareness, self-confidence, self-reliance and self-esteem; Expend their sense of responsibility for the shared experience of the community; Develop healthy and supportive relationships with peers and mentors; Explore and appreciate nature in an outdoor setting. We understand the value of learning and how to be an active and productive citizen of the community and the world. We want our campers to learn from and with people different than themselves. We take care in hiring a staff team reflecting a wide range of backgrounds in order to expose our campers to an array of cultures and experiences. All staff are fully screened through background and reference checks and undergo extensive training to ensure the safety of all campers. Our outdoor activities encourage campers to expand their sense of their own capabilities while also helping them participate in the achievements of the group. We use reflective activities to help campers incorporate their experiences into a larger worldview. Our activities include values clarification and character development through non-denominational devotionals, reflections at the end of the day, cabin chats, and ceremonies. We also make sure our campers have tons of fun! Campfire time is filled goofy skits, stories and sing-alongs. Campers have many opportunities to be adventurous during games and activity times, to play, sing, splash, and have a great time while learning valuable skills.
