Welcome to camp
Camp Rancho Soquel is a relaxed three-day gathering for friends and families.
We'll camp, eat together, swim in the pond, play games, explore the farm, move our bodies, relax by the fire and spend a lot of time together.
Come for the whole weekend, stay nearby, or join us for part of it.
There's plenty planned — and plenty of time to do absolutely nothing.
…and plenty of free time around the pond.
Saturday · September 5
Set up camp, have lunch at the pond, swim and play, then roll into sound bath, Capture the Flag, taco night, line dancing and poker.
Sunday · September 6
Start with goat milking and yoga, gather for meals at the pond, spend the afternoon playing, then finish with dinner and the Camp Talent Show.
Monday · September 7
Start Labor Day with the 5K Fun Run, have breakfast together, pack up camp, share one last lunch and head home.
