About
Gold Arrow Camp is a traditional summer camp where campers take part in activities such as wake boarding, horseback riding, and rock climbing. Campers experience rustic living, and boys and girls make fun, lifelong memories at the camp.
• Ages: 6–14 years old
Gold Arrow Camp has been a summer home to thousands of happy children since 1933. Its mission statement is “Preparing Young People for Life's Challenges.” The 2026 theme is “Crank Up the Thanks (Turn Up the Gratitude).” The camp reports that 100% of campers make at least one new friend, and 95 five-year blankets were awarded last summer. The camp directors have a combined 136 years of experience, and 57% of staff members were Gold Arrow Camp campers.
Gold Arrow Camp is operated under a Special Use Permit from the USDA Forest Service on the Sierra National Forest, California, and it operates under a Special Use Permit from the U.S.D.A. Forest Service. Every Kid Outdoors Vision Receives Award is listed among its awards and recognition. Staffed charter buses transport campers to and from Gold Arrow Camp with stops in Northern and Southern California, campers also fly to and from Fresno Yosemite Airport, and parents can drive campers either to or from Gold Arrow Camp. The camp recommends that campers take one of the charter buses on the way to camp because the bus trip provides an opportunity to start meeting campers and staff, and pick up at the end of the camp session is in the morning, so parents generally stay in the area at one of the recommended accommodations the evening before. Gold Arrow Camp is committed to making its website accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities.
