Camp James

Camp James at the Newport Dunes is located in one of the most scenic places in Orange County. Our program has provided positive summer camp experiences for more than 38,000 campers since it began. We have proudly employed more than 4000 wonderful individuals who dedicated their summer to providing support, leadership, adventure and play opportunities to the campers in our care. Many of these folks have become parents since they worked with us, and are now sending their children to Camp James. Our award winning CILT program for teens has provided over 7000 high school teens the opportunity to learn, grow, serve special needs campers, and participate and share the joy of camp.

Children need opportunities to make friends, challenge themselves, be creative, experience nature, laugh, jump, splash, dance around, and have fun.

The need for kids to play outside has never been greater. The need for human connection is vital for a healthy and happy life for all children. We are here to make play and connection happen in real time. We have many traditions that we hold dear, but know that we are dedicated to continual growth and development as an organization. We will work hard so that we may provide the very best camp experience for the children in our care, including yours.
