A Word About Ages
From time to time the question concerning age is asked about who can attend Surprise Valley Youth Camp. Junior Week is for boys and girls ages 7 - 12. Some children come at an earlier ages and do well, especially if they are used to being away from home or if they have older family members in attendance.

Senior Week is for young people ages 13 - 18. Now we are having classes for those of College age and older adults who wish to attend.
