Program Information :
Camp Woodcraft, a program of Woodcraft Rangers, has a storied legacy of fostering inclusion and access in the outdoors since its founding in 1902 by author and naturalist Ernest Thompson Seton. As a pioneer in youth development and outdoor education, Seton’s vision laid the groundwork for many of today’s outdoor education programs. Woodcraft Rangers has stood apart by ensuring all youth, regardless of race, religion, or socioeconomic background, can experience the healing the power of nature—because every child deserves a safe space to belong, connect, and grow.
Since launching its scouting and camping programs in Los Angeles in 1922, Woodcraft has championed whole child development and providing enriching opportunities for youth at little to no cost, exemplifying a commitment to a Camp-4-All. This commitment remains central to Woodcraft’s mission, eliminating barriers to participation and empowering young people to explore pathways to purposeful lives with positive mentorship and a supportive community.
For over a century, Camp Woodcraft has operated in picturesque Southern California locations like Lake Arrowhead, Big Bear, and Lake Castaic. Its new permanent home in Big Bear Valley continues this tradition, offering a year-round retreat where participants build confidence, curiosity, and lifelong memories.
True to its founding principles, Camp Woodcraft blends tradition with innovation, offering transformative, accessible experiences that empower youth to discover their potential in a safe and inclusive environment. With every campfire story, hike, and shared adventure, Camp Woodcraft inspires the next generation to step out of their comfort, embrace challenges, uncover a love for nature and endless possibilities!
