Mountain Meadow Press Release April 12th 2010

April 12, 2010 — Find out how this California Summer Camp has changed my son’s behavior for the better.

Provide your children with the experience of a lifetime this summer by enrolling them in a session at Mountain Meadow Ranch California Summer Camp. Mountain Meadow is uniquely located on a spectacular 900 acre ranch just two hours north of Lake Tahoe, and has been enriching the lives of children and teenagers since 1956. By limiting enrollment to just 100 campers per session, the directors and counseling staff are better able to focus on each individual camper’s abilities and needs with much greater personal attention than other larger camp programs. This allows for a more personalized and family-like camping experience, where campers return home with a renewed sense of self-confidence and accomplishment, not to mention lasting memories and friendships. Life skills are taught through real, outdoor experiences and fun activities which bring the entire camp family together.

Parents have seen first-hand the positive change that results from their children having experienced a 2 or 3 week session at Mountain Meadow Ranch. Building character, self-confidence is so important to a camper’s development, all of which takes place simply by participating in new, diverse and often challenging activities. A staff to camper ratio of 1 to 4 allows for campers to improve on their skills in a variety of areas, or learn a new one…and actually spend time becoming proficient in any activity they choose.

Mountain Meadow Ranch is accredited through the American Camp Association and the Western Association of Independent Camps, ensuring a quality camping experience where the safety and welfare of your children is constantly looked after by their caring team of staff and directors.

Don’t miss out on your child’s opportunity to grow this summer; register online at http://www.mountainmeadow.com today and find out why so many parents have chosen Mountain Meadow as their premier summer camp for 55 summers. For questions you may email the directors at fun@mountainmeadow.com or call the camp office at 530-257-4419
