current park fire updates |
| In this season of change, we have regretfully decided to cancel this year's senior camp allowing for the continued construction and capital improvements which are underway at camp. These capital improvements not only include the traditional maintenance of paint and raking, but go much more deeper into the structural aspect of our campground. We are doing a complete rebuild and replacement of our central septic system. We are remodeling the upper bathrooms on both the men and the women side, along with replacing all of the toilets with more efficient and reliable models. |  |
In addition, we are also thinning trees for fire mitigation and creating a standard mapping system for new guests to navigate to grounds.
Lastly, we are working with upgraded electrical at the RV Meadow as well as putting implements in place to repurpose Snob Hill for additional RV trailer space.
For our Seniors, Camp is an opportunity to disconnect from the bustle and enjoy the beauties of the mountain, while getting closer to God. As work continues on the grounds, we know that the added projects will create safety hazards - as well as detract from the best experience the grounds has to offer.
Stay tuned for progress updates as we are excited to show you all we’ve done!
If you would like to support any of these projects, through labor or financial donation - please give here, or contact us to get on the volunteer list.

As we prepare for the 2022 Season of Change, the Camp Board has walked the grounds and made a final assessment of the projects we'd like to take on this Season. We continue to post updates on progress made.

Seasonal Volunteer Requests are Now Open!
Seasonal Volunteers are assigned to assist with the many "Season Of Change 2022" projects scheduled!
Generally for our May work-month - after a snowy winter, the camp requires lots of work to prepare for spring and summer camps, including raking the grounds for fire protection, repairs, and general cleaning.
Volunteers are required to prepare the campground for peak season. All lodging and meals are covered for volunteers.
If you are interested in coming to Mount Lassen Camp to serve in that capacity, sign up today.

Season of Change - Postponement of 2022 Camp Spring/Summer Season
In April, we take a full month to rally volunteers and staff to open the grounds for Spring and Summer operations. This is a labor of love and a physically challenging task. Working through cuts, scrapes, tired muscles and the typical 12 to 16 hour day... our volunteers and staff work tirelessly 6 to 7 days a week... to get the grounds open and ready.
It takes an army and it takes commitment.
When the first camps arrive, we want this facility to be operational, safe and ready for them to experience God in a great way!
In 2022, we are rounding a new corner in the legacy of this camp. After evaluating some of the hurdles we were to face in getting us up and running - we have decided to postpone our 2022 Spring / Summer Year opening... so that we can continue to modernize these grounds and bring you the very best this mountain has to offer! This means we will also not be having a 2022 Family Camp this year.
What can you expect from us? Continued social media and blog announcements detailing the exciting projects we're tackling this year... and possibly some surprise events to come!
What are we doing? Last year, we completely replaced and installed a new water system for the camp. Gone are the days of "Cold Showers" and "Low Water Pressure". That's a thing of the past! THIS YEAR, we're putting in new septic and electrical... support for larger RV's and more RV Spaces that are clearly defined!
How can you get involved? We have a ton of minor projects too - and these will be announced through the Season.
Continue to pray with us as we embark on this endeavor. Building a better camp, to stand the test of time, while we wait for the Lord's return. We promise in 2023 you'll see some amazing improvements as we navigate this Season of Change.

Suspension of Volunteer Requests
Released August 20th 2021
Mineral still remains under evacuation and all volunteers (with the exception of Pastor Loren and Lani) have left the grounds. Phil and Lee are on standby to come up as needed. In their place, the National Guard has sent up a Kitchen Crew to fill the gap.
With that being said, we are suspending the call for volunteers and thank all of you for your willingness to help.
As of right now the camp continues to maintain its function as a heliattack base for CalFire and the National Guard. The DixieFire is still in close proximity to the camp, thus the sustained evacuation order.
Lastly, as of today – to assist with aiding fire operations, the entire Lassen National Forest has closed its camps and recreation facilities to the public to ensure safety.
Please continue to keep all of those involved in your prayers. We will update the public as more information comes in.

Due to the ongoing developments surrounding the #DixieFire - and out of an abundance of caution, Stan Wagner and the Camp Board have felt it will be best to cancel this year's senior camp 2021. We are saddened by this development, but are confident this is the correct course of action.
All camps scheduled after August 21st are still on schedule. We understand this is a fluid situation and will update our social media channels as more information comes in.
If you have any questions regarding your registration fees or would like to hold your spot for next year's Senior Camp 2022 (dates TBA) please contact Judi Woodard by phone at (408) 205-7547, or by email at [email protected].
Please continue to pray for the Camp, the Firefighting personnel, all of those who have lost so much... as well as those who are still in harm's way.
