Our annual Family Camp retreat weekend is typically held over the first weekend in August at Mattole River Camp and Retreat. This 3-night retreat is a great opportunity for anyone (not just families!) to unplug, unwind, and fellowship with one another in the beauty of Creation. Whether you prefer camping in a tent, RV, cabin, or the lodge, Mattole Camp offers many amenities to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable.

This year, camp will be held from Thursday - Sunday, August 6th-9th.

Activities include:

• Songs and S’mores around the campfire

• Shared meals with fellow campers

• Activities for kids and adults

• Joyful worship in the great outdoors

• Plenty of river time in the southern Humboldt sunshine

• Nature walks, games, stargazing, and contemplative activities

• Free time for reading, puzzles, games, and more!

Mattole River Camp and Retreat is located about halfway between Petrolia and Honeydew on the “Lost Coast.” It is a 2-hour drive from Arcata, along rural county roads. More info about Mattole River Camp and Retreat can be found on their website: https://mattolerivercamp.org
