SUMMER PROGRAMS
Summer 2023 will see a new flow to the weekly schedule at Camp Lutherwood. Camp will continue to start on Sunday afternoon but will now end on Thursday evening. (Half-week and weekend programs will not change.) We are excited to invite the entire family out to camp for a closing celebration that includes a picnic dinner and our traditional closing campfire. We feel that implementing a Sunday-Thursday model will benefit our campers, their families, our staff, and our overall mission. This change creates flexibility for camper families in pick-up/weekend schedules, allows us to honor the needs of our summer staff, and lets us share our closing campfire experience with your whole family. More details on our Thursday evening closing and departure will be included with your pre-camp information. See below for the specific tiered pricing for each program.
Aren’t yet sure if Camp Lutherwood is a good fit for your camper? Contact us with any questions or concerns. Call 541-998-6444 or email camper@lutherwoodoregon.org and we’ll be glad to help!
