Camp Tule is a nature-based day camp where children are given space to nurture their creativity and spend time exploring and playing in nature. Each new day is filled with exciting discoveries like “catching” animal footprints in track boxes that the children make, spotting barn owls, egrets, deer, jackrabbits, kingfishers, and red-tailed hawks, and playing lots of nature games that teach ecological concepts. Our nature-themed art projects are always a special highlight each week. And, what would an adventure day be without climbing trees? We do that, too!

Children attending Camp Tule learn about the native plants and animals of the Laguna de Santa Rosa ecosystem in a supportive, playful, and encouraging environment.

Plus, now, every family will have the option to pay for Camp Tule in installments. We have implemented a new scholarship/reduced tuition application process. Families applying for scholarships/tuition reduction must complete the application BEFORE registering for camp. We review applications and respond with a code to reduce tuition between 10-87% of the session price for qualifying families. Parents/Guardians will then register for the session of their choosing, typing in that code during the check-out process. We encourage families to complete the Camp Tule Scholarship/Reduced Tuition Application  as soon as possible. Camp Tule Staff We hire enthusiastic youth and young adults to serve as Naturalist field instructors and Camp Counselors. Our staff includes Spanish-speaking adults and teens, ensuring a welcoming environment for all campers. Camp Tule also recruits youth seeking leadership experience by volunteering at camp as Counselors-in-Training. Naturalists, Counselors, and Counselors-in-Training round out our Camp Tule staff, along with some of our skilled, knowledgeable, and dedicated Learning Laguna docents.

Registration We acknowledge that our website is not mobile friendly, and apologize for the inconvenience. We highly recommend registering for Camp Tule on a desktop or laptop computer. Registration requires setting up an account with Enrichment.kids. Please have your camper’s health and medical information on hand, along with the phone numbers for the emergency contacts and the names of those authorized to pick the child up from camp. The process takes approximately 15 - 20 minutes and includes completing the health and safety forms, and signing the liability and media release forms. After creating an account, you can save your progress and return to the registration process. However, a spot in the camp is only guaranteed once the registration process is complete. You have 30 minutes to check out, once you put your camp selection in the cart.
