Camp Information for Campers/Parents
Camp MayMac has been serving children and youth from
the San Francisco Bay area for the last 35 years. The
camp is located in the Santa Cruz Mountains near Scotts
Valley and has 178 acres of rolling hills and beautiful
trees along with the developed sports and activity areas.
Each of the activities are age appropriate, the programming
is distinct in nature, and the staff are trained in safety,
cultural sensitivity and counseling skills. The summer
staff are interviewed and a back ground check is required
before they are allowed to work individually with the
campers.
Fee:
Our cost per camper is $90 during the Winter Weekend camps and $300 per camper during the summer. We have grants available that make it affordable to many of our youth from cities. Often we can lower your cost to between $35 - $150. During registration we will determine your fee based on income, number in family and how many children from your family are attending Camp MayMac.
