Overnight Camps 2013 in Oregon
Trackers overnight camps are real outdoor adventures. An overnight camp at Trackers could feature traditional skills such as wilderness survival or homesteading.
Campers might track and trail a herd of elk. Or even embark on a medieval role-playing adventure. We journey everywhere in the Pacific Northwest, from camping in the foothills of Mt. Hood to kayaking on the Oregon Coast.
My ten-year-old daughter had her first overnight camp experience at Trackers. She came home with songs about milking goats, hand-forged iron, and memories for a lifetime. She loved the wildness of camp and her own sense of self-sufficiency. -Katy Luers, Parent

Top 5 reasons to join Trackers overnight camps...
1) Real overnight camp adventure Remember when camps use to be about outdoor adventure and lore? At Trackers we harken back to those days of yore with activities that could include archery, fishing, forest craft and more.
2) Incredible outdoor locations Choose any overnight camp with Trackers and know that our location will be epic. From the coast to the mountains, we offer programs that range across the most fantastic places of the Pacific Northwest.
3) Smaller camp groups We have an average of 25% smaller group sizes than most overnight camps. This means safer programs with more attention with more authentic learning.
4) Real, rugged and fun Our overnight camps are intentionally rugged for the camper that appreciates adventure. Plenty of sleepaway camps have an indoor pool or the catered cafeteria. Not at Trackers. We live in the out of doors. We fish in ponds and lakes. Our meals are cooked over a wood fired cowboy kitchen. All this while looking forward with modern standards of overnight camp safety and care.
5) Like no other overnight camp A camper's competency is respected. We believe children and teens are capable of so much more than our modern world asks of them. We raise the bar of personal accomplishment while gently guiding them to connect to the natural world. Trackers also offers a unique perspective on community building for our overnight camps. We do more than simply teach about natural sciences and traditional life skills, we create a culture of learning and immersion in the out of doors.
