Camp Life

Cabin Groups

Each Camper is assigned to a cabin group with other children around the same age and grade. Cabin groups are named after Oregon’s State Symbols: Sunstones, Meadowlarks, Swallowtails, Tritons, Oregon Grapes, Thundereggs, Doug Firs, Metasequoias, Beavers, and Chinook Salmon.

Housing

Please Note: Building assignments may change with COVID precautions.

Each of the younger cabin groups has their own bunk room and shares a common area and a bathroom with three other cabin groups. The middle school groups have their own cabins. The teens stay in yurts and have an outdoor sitting area for late-night conversations.

Daily Schedule and Activities

Please Note: Daily schedule may change with COVID precautions.

Each day at Camp Blue Spruce is filled with a variety of fun activities.

Cabin Time: In the mornings, same-age cabin groups stay together with their cabin counselors and swim, hike, canoe, or do an arts & crafts project.

Interest Groups: In the afternoons, campers are encouraged to spread their wings and try new things. Each child selects an activity of their choice from among several interest groups, including: nature, sports, swimming, theater/dance, canoeing, cooking, stargazing, and arts & crafts.

All Camp Activities: The evenings are dedicated to strengthening and celebrating the whole camp community. Evening activities have included a campfire with allergy-friendly s’mores, a talent/variety show, a camp dance, all-camp games, or stargazing. Camp songs are an important part of life at Camp Blue Spruce, and we sing before each meal, at campfire, and other times throughout the day!
