Welcome to Camp Ritchie 2011!!

Set along side Bear Reservoir in the Eldorado National Forest east of Sacramento, Camp Ritchie serves the LDS community by hosting several girls and boys camps during the summer. Come September, the camp is ready to be shut down for the winter. That's where the Young Single Adults come in!

Every Labor Day weekend, Young Single Adults from the San Francisco Bay Area get exclusive use of Camp Ritchie, enjoying swimming, boating, and more at the lake, as well as hikes, climbing, and more. All of these great activities are available for a fantastically low fee and some needed service for the camp, to help prepare for winter shutdown.

Camp Ritchie is available to all singles age 18-35 who abide by Church standards and camp rules.
