Camp at a Glance
Camp StarCrest is a traditional, co-educational, sleep-away camp in the beautiful San Bernardino mountains. We're a place to unplug and enjoy nature with plenty of things to keep your camper engaged with the world around them. We offer several programs within five categories: Adventure (Hiking, Survival, Team Building, Archery), Athletics (Soccer, Baseball, Softball, Basketball, Volleyball, Football, Cheerleading), Aquatics (Free Swim, Swimming Lessons, Beach Trips, Water Polo), Art (Theater, Music, Dance, Arts & Crafts, Photography), and Academics (Mad-Science, Puzzles, Nature, Biology, Sustainability, Ecology, Geology). In light of the recent public health concerns we offer flexible sleep-away and virtual camp options for your camper.
Everything at our camp is build around our 5-Star Values: Seek, Support, Spirit, Service, and Skill. These values set every camper up for success not only at camp but at home and school. Every sleep-away camp comes with one off-camp trip per week, daily evening activities, a color war, and unlimited fun. Our all-uniform camp creates an overwhelming sense of community from the very first moment you arrive. Camp StarCrest is a place to create friendships and memories that your camper will cherish for a lifetime!

Safety at StarCrest
Safety for our campers and staff is our number one priority at Camp StarCrest. All of our counselors are first aid/ CPR certified. We have two nurses that care for sick campers and handle medicine. We make sure all campers and staff are receiving a proper diet no matter their restrictions.
In response to new public health concerns we have the following policies in place.
1. We're limiting our overall size: we are limiting our camper capacity to no more than 48 campers at a time. This means that the class sizes and the cabin groups will remain small.
2. We'll be washing our hands before every meal (yes to our camp songs of course!) and throughout the day
3. Campers that are sick will remain in the health center until feeling better, the same goes for staff
4. A negative COVID-19 test from 72 hrs. or less will be required
5. Cabins, bathrooms, other facilities, equipment and supplies will be cleaned after each use.
6. Campers will sleep head to toe if in bunk beds but most campers will not have a "bunk buddy" this year
