While much of Camp is youth led and youth may be put in leadership roles there is a call out for more adult volunteers. Specifically, the camp is in need of a Tiger Day Facilitator, a Sports Coach, and Den Leaders. If you are available to volunteer contact Amanda Rigby at 760-732-3147 or at smcampdirector@yahoo.com.
Why should you choose the Carlsbad Day Camp no matter where in the District you live? We are an aquatics camp which also has outdoor cooking, a shooting range, sports, and crafts! Our Family Pack Meeting will also include a Raingutter Regatta!!! In other words, we have more fun than any other camp EVER!!
