Rainier Expedition-->Activity Ideas

Camping Safaris

Looking for a really big adventure for your circle this year?  Attend an out-of-state YMCA camp!



Check out Camp Surf in San Diego, it's been a great host to us in the past!

Explore the complete list of YMCA camps!

Local Activities

The following list is really old (August 2003) but it may give you ideas and some of the contact information may still be good. 

We need a volunteer to update it for 2008/2009 - any takers?
