takes place at the Toro Regional Park youth recreation area. The regular program is for campers ages 7-11 who spend a week camping out under the stars and swimming, hiking, boating, crafting, cooking out, playing games, learning about nature and having campfires. Preteens can take part in the Environmental Team, aimed at developing an understanding of environmental concerns. Campers ages 13-15 combine the fun of camping with two hours of work experience helping to improve Toro Park and receive a job evaluation that may be valuable when seeking that first job.
