Little did I know that one small moment when I was fourteen years old would shape the rest of my life as I knew it. During the summer of 1990 I experienced my first job, as a “Counselor in Leadership Training” at a local summer camp. Sure, kids were fun, the money ($11 per day) would fit my teenage “needs” of Friday night outings to the movies and the latest CDs, and of course extra socialization with girls never hurt a guy either. My first assignment - Tom Sawyer Island, the gold panning station to be exact.

Our amazing Directors are excited about sharing their camp memories that date back to the times when they were little campers.

The first Camp Keystone Open House is just around the corner! As we work getting our program offerings ready for open house, we have also begun collecting applications for our highly coveted counselor positions.

This year we thought we’d ask our amazing parents for your thoughtful referrals of individuals to add to our already high quality staff.

Keystone Pottery Camp is a uniquely designed pottery experience that will serve as an additional fantastic Camp Keystone offering in a day filled with instruction that parallels those of a real art studio.

Summer is right around the corner and it is never too early to start planning for summer break! Here at Camp Keystone we are super excited about the summer plans already in the works for camp, and by taking the time to plan summer adventures early you give yourself the opportunity for securing spots in popular activities that fill up quick.

Every year our staff looks for new and exciting ways to engage and entertain our campers. While Camp Keystone is already the best camp around we strive to always do better! And we’ve got a NEW activity for our campers!

IIn the midst of winter we are having amazing weather! One of the perks of living in Southern California is all sorts of amazing attractions. Within just about an hour drive up the coast, or inland to the mountains you’re smack in the middle of some of the most spectacular scenery in the world. Here in the Conejo Valley, we are lucky to be so close to the gorgeous beaches of the American Riviera also known as Santa Barbara.

The year is quickly coming to a close and we’ve had such a fantastic year here at Camp Keystone that we are just itching for the New Year and summer to come along and scoop us up into another fun-filled summer!
