Need a highlight for your summer? Find it at Tree of Life
Lutheran Bible Camp, a one-week summer camp in the beautiful Sierra
foothills! Our program is for both children and teens, from those
just starting grade 4 to those just out of high school. We offer a
week of Bible study, Christian fellowship, and just plain fun
in God's great outdoors.
Take a look at what camp is like in our 4-minute video
promo. Many thanks to Vaughn Klebig for putting it together! Click

$245 for each additional child, and $120 for each Little Lamb aged 4-7
(3 and under are free). Senior applicants (9th-12th) should add $5 to
their camper fee for the cost of their special Friday night
festivities.
Snack bar cards are available in $5 and $10
denominations, with a $15 maximum per camper. We recommend at most
$10 for Juniors and Intermediates. Campers with snack bar cards do
not need money during the week, and we discourage bringing it.
Unused portions of snack bar cards can be refunded at the end of camp.
Registration forms and fees are due three weeks before
the first day of camp. You can get forms from your church or download them here. Late registrations are
accepted when space is available. Please telephone to reserve a space
if your registration will be late.
