Red Alder Summer Camps

The Red Alder Summer Camps offer an exceptional learning adventure for kids ages 6 through 12, continuing the tradition established by Straub Outdoors. These camps emphasize hands-on learning through field trips and interactive activities that explore various subjects such as science, culture, history, and the arts. Professional staff provide a nurturing setting where kids can grow and explore safely. Highlights include unique thematic weeks like the Veterinary Science Camp, where campers explore animal care and rescue, and the Working Animals Camp, focusing on domestication and animal roles on farms. Both camps culminate with a visit to the Oregon State Fair, included in the camp package. The camps take place at the Pringle Community Hall in Salem, Oregon, running daily from morning to late afternoon, offering engaging and educational summer experiences at a reasonable cost with discounts for families enrolling multiple children.
