Recreation
Camp Highlander
Camp Highlander offers extensive selections of both outdoor and indoor activities as well as sports. We provide a broad academic focus combining fun and engaging activities with elements including physics, mathematics and botany. These highly captivating camps and activities share a common philosophy of encouraging good choices and fostering a healthy lifestyle among kids. Furthermore, the programs promote diversity and a love for the outdoors. The important developmental skills that are taught include teamwork, leadership, adaptability, flexibility, conflict resolution, brainstorming, attention-span, resilience and confidence, to name just a few. These soft skills are taught through climbing, swimming, hiking, camp games, team play, dance, karate and so much more.
UPDATE: We are proud to share that UC Riverside's Neuroscience Outreach Team was awarded the 2022 Outstanding Commitment to Higher Education Outreach Award for their work on Brain Awareness Day and Camp Highlander. For more information on our collaboration, please visit the Inside UCR news article.

“The camp was just as great as last time for my kids. I know it made a big impact in my two nieces who are normally very shy and closed in. My youngest niece came home and said I made a friend Auntie. So thank you. They also learned a lot of teambuilding.”
