About

Hye Camp is a Diocese Summer Camp program that runs in a natural setting and focuses on Armenian youth. The program is organized into multiple sessions and includes opportunities for families to visit during a special Family Day to see what the program is about. Hye Camp also marks its milestones with 60th anniversary celebrations that feature a donor wall, event photos, and a Hye Camp Anthology Book.

• Schedule: Hye Camp consists of 4 one-week sessions.

The Diocese Summer Camp program has been created to nurture the bodies, minds, and spirits of Armenian youth in a natural setting, providing a stimulating and fun environment of community that inspires individual growth and the values of Christian Fellowship. The Hye Camp Program began in 1964 with 32 participants and was originally called the Summer Religious Study Conference, which ran from July 27–August 8, 1964, at Dinky Creek in the Sierra Mountains. During the rest of the year, the camp facility is used by various Diocesan organizations for meetings, retreats, and conferences, and it is also available to rent by outside groups throughout the year. Parents can mail letters (no packages) to their children at Armenian Church Summer Camp, with the child’s name and week of camp included in the address.
