2026 Camp Dates and Locations

Our Sibling Camp programs are specifically designed for siblings who live apart from at least one sibling and want to attend camp together.

Session 1: June 26-28, 2026 Suttle Lake Camp, Sisters, Oregon

This overnight camp will be two nights. At the start of this session all siblings attending must be between the ages of 6-26. Campers will stay overnight in cabins with their siblings and Sibling Camp volunteers, and they will move through the day activities with their sibling group. This session has increased staff-to-camper ratios, smaller group and overall camp size, and more built in choice in the schedule. This camp session is an excellent fit for younger campers or campers who have not been to an overnight camp program before as well as young people who are more successful with additional support (behavior, emotional, physical, medical, etc.). This session will be a self-transport event. 

Session 2: August 10-14, 2026 Camp Magruder, Rockaway Beach, Oregon

This is a four-night overnight camp session.  At the start of this session all siblings attending must be between the ages of 8-26.  Campers will move through their day at camp in 'Family Groups,' which are made up of their sibling group as well as 2-3 other sibling groups and our volunteer counselors. Overnight, they will stay in 'Cabin Groups'. We have three cabin options for this session. Campers can request to stay in a cabin with folks who identify as the same gender they do (inclusive of siblings of the same gender), an all-gender cabin, or a cabin with their sibling group, and our team will do our best to accommodate requests in alliance with our staffing ratios. This session will have bus transportation from Salem and Hillsboro.

Refferal/Application Requirements

To attend camp, each camper must have an application submitted on their behalf by a caregiver, provider, caseworker, casa, etc.. Anyone who knows the young person well. In addition, each sibling who would also be attending would need an application submitted on their behalf as well. Our selection committee will review all applications to ensure our team can safely and successfully serve the sibling group. If you have any questions about this process, please reach out to siblingcamp@kindredmatters.org.
