BEING IN NATURE IS FUN.
Come to an El Ranchito camp, and you’ll live outdoors, learn all about the natural world, and have the time of your life. El Ranchito offers three sessions of Nature Discovery Camp for 4th through 9th graders, and a Conservation Corps session for 10th – 12th graders. We make camp fun for all young people, and affordable for all eligible families.

IMPORTANT NOTICE from our Camp Director Justine Salsbury and our Registration Director Nancy Zepeda
Dear Families and Friends of El Ranchito,
The health and safety of our campers is always our highest priority. As coronavirus (or COVID-19) is an increasingly significant concern in the U.S., with our medical director, Dr. Brian Temple, we are closely monitoring developments related to COVID-19.
At this time, we are still planning to move forward with El Ranchito as planned in June and July. We will be in close communication should anything change. We will not hold any in person office hours at People’s Community Clinic or El Buen Samaritano and will inform you when those office hours begin again.
Because camp happens in a close community, our health policy has always taken great care to develop and maintain medical preparedness. El Ranchito has a communicable disease plan in place that will be revised in cooperation with our medical staff and public health authorities as additional COVID-19 guidance is provided. The American Camp Association has stated that coronavirus currently poses no immediate concern for camps.
We will continue to keep the El Ranchito community updated as new information becomes available. Please feel free to reach out with questions or concerns.
Take Good Care
Queridas familias y amigos de El Ranchito:
La salud y seguridad de nuestros campistas es siempre nuestra máxima prioridad.

En este momento, todavía estamos planeando avanzar con El Ranchito como estaba previsto en junio y julio. Estaremos en comunicación cercana si algo cambia. No tendremos ningún horario de oficina en la People’s Community Clinic o El Buen Samaritano y les informaremos cuando comenzaremos otra ves las horas de la oficinas.
Debido a que el campamento ocurre en una comunidad cercana, nuestra política de salud siempre ha tenido mucho cuidado para desarrollar y mantener la preparación médica. El Ranchito cuenta con un plan de enfermedades transmisibles que se revisará en cooperación con nuestro personal médico y las autoridades de salud pública a medida que se brinde orientación adicional sobre COVID-19. La American Camp Association ha declarado que el coronavirus actualmente no representa una preocupación inmediata para los campamentos.
