What are "Friends of Camp Sacramento"?
Friends of Camp Sacramento is an organization formed
in 1977 with the specific purpose to support and encourage the operations
and development of Camp Sacramento along with creating public support
for and interest in Camp. They assist financially, physically and through
public advocacy the operations and development of Camp Sacramento. Also
consult with, and advise as requested, the camp management and/or City
of Sacramento, Department of Parks and Recreation regarding operations,
policies, procedures and development of Camp. It is a volunteer organization,
made up of people with a love for camp, dedicated to the support of maintaining
Camp Sacramento for the enjoyment of all campers.
What do "Friends of Camp Sacramento" do?
These volunteers perform a variety of activities
to ensure the ongoing success of Camp. These activities consist of several
fund raising events such as a membership drive and raffle held at the
beginning of each camp session. Friends help out with opening and closing
weekend at Camp. The main fund-raiser is sponsoring Labor Day Weekend
at Camp Sacramento. It is the "Summer’s Last Fling" Board
Members work as volunteer staff members and set up activities for the
weekend. With the profits from these fund-raisers Friends of Camp Sacramento
is able to purchase things for Camp to make the camping experience more
enjoyable. Friends is responsible for the great playground that was installed
in 2000. They also have provided the awning on the dining hall porch and
lodge. They remodeled the Lodge and put in the Lobby Desk. Patio furniture,
kitchen supplies and other small items are purchased regularly. As a member
of "Friends" you will receive notices of opening and closing
weekend, yearly membership information and notices of any special events

funds for programs and equipment or just to promote the "Family Camp"
experience.
