What is Camp Skookum?
We are passionate about protecting the connection between children and their families while in the child welfare system, and want to celebrate and support families who are back together after their time apart. Camp Skookum is a place to make memories, find community with other families, and celebrate being together. And it’s completely free for families to attend because people like you donate and make camp possible.
