Save the Dates! Two Possibilities, One Amazing Adventure.

Because Camp enCourage takes place in the beautiful Lassen wilderness, Mother Nature gets a little say in our plans!

Each year, we provide families with two tentative camp date options to help them plan ahead. The final date is confirmed once Lassen Volcanic National Park determines that weather and campground conditions are suitable for our stay.

Camp enCourage 2027
Tentative Date 1

Tentative Date 2
To Be Announced

Please keep both tentative dates available until the final camp date is officially announced.

We appreciate your flexibility as we plan a safe and unforgettable outdoor experience for every camper!
