HistoryCamp Trinity on the Bar 717 Ranch was founded in 1930, when Grover and Erma Gates first welcomed campers into their pioneer ranch family. Since then thousands of campers have spent a portion of their summers living, working, and playing as part of a large ranch family in the mountains of Trinity County. This family model continues to provide a framework of cooperative practices and wholesome traditions around which Camp's programs and philosophies are shaped. Still owned and run by the Gates family, Camp Trinity is the oldest accredited coeducational summer camp in California, welcoming children and staff from across the state, the country, and the world.SpecialtiesFor over 80 years the Bar 717 Ranch has welcomed children to 450 acres in the beautiful mountains of Trinity County to experience nature, form deep friendships and have big fun. Life on the Ranch is rustic and unplugged: we spend our days swimming, hiking, riding, caring for animals, gardening, and making music and art. We live, work, and play in a co-educational, non-competitive setting where kids are free to be themselves. Building community and respect for the environment are the heart and soul of our summer camp.
