Camp Sealth

Sealth hosts resident and day camp during the summer, environmental education for school groups during the spring and fall, and is a year-round conference and retreat center.

[1] Camp Sealth is located on Vashon Island, Washington, has nearly 400 acres (1.6 km2) of forest, wetland and marine environment, and over a mile of waterfront along Colvos Passage in the Puget Sound.

The camp has a strong emphasis on diversity and inclusion, and welcomes campers and staff from a wide variety of backgrounds.

Sealth also partners with the Gluten Intolerance Group, and the PKU clinic at the University of Washington to support campers with special medical and dietary needs.

The summer season runs from late June through the end of August, and includes eight sessions ranging in length from 4 to 13 days long.

Classic camp consists of many traditional camp activities, including archery, arts & crafts, boating, fishing, swimming, hikes, overnight campouts, outdoor cooking, nature, marine "touch tanks", games, songs, theme meals, and much more.

In addition, two sessions offer a unique "Nocturnal" program where campers stay up at night and sleep during the day.

Past and current trips include backpacking, biking, kayaking, river rafting, climbing, geocaching and more.

Sealth offers many opportunities for teens interested in leadership, including the Counselor-in-Training (CIT), Riding-Staff-In-Training (RSIT), and High School Internship programs.

CITs and RSITs are leadership campers that participate in skills workshops and job shadows to learn more about working as camp staff.
