Sign up for a RAD Camp and spend all day doing what you love! With your mornings and afternoons spent conquering your RAD Camp of choice, you are sure to learn some great new skills. Whether it’s on water, wheel, stone, or stallion, you’re in for an intense week of fun! RAD Camps are for teenagers 13-17 years of age.

Adventure Camp:

We strive to provide the tools necessary to empower young women to be confident leaders both in the outdoors and within their communities. We work to broaden their horizon of possibilities so that they have the courage and ability to blaze their own roads in life.

Having served as senior staff for camp programs with Outdoor School, Campfire and Girl Scouts, our directors have decades of experience developing the leadership capabilities of young teen leaders. Campers thrive under the strengthened leadership model as teen leaders take on more and more of a leadership role at camp.

CAMP LEADERSHIP CIT/LIT PROGRAMS: Our oldest campers have the option to be our youngest level of leadership. While enjoying the majority of the week as a camper, they will also work with senior staff to ensure a successful week of camp for younger campers. They will participate in leadership training with Senior Staff and their Cabin Counselors.

CAMP SCHOLARSHIPS OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE: Camp Two Roads provides several options for confidential assistance (or “Camperships”) for financial support to attend camp. Camperships are awarded as full or partial credit for camp fees only.

FAMILY CAMP SESSION(S): Girls Just Want to Have Fun - Spring Weekend event: This is a fun weekend away where campers can bring a female adult – mom, auntie, mema, etc. to share in our awesome camp fun – including sleeping in your very own cabin together.

Preview the new site we will be using at Camp Yamhill this summer, learn a new skill or just enjoy being out in nature for the weekend.
