THE COPPERCREEK MEMORIAL FUND GIVE THE GIFT OF CAMP TO KIDS IN NEED! For families interested in possibly receiving scholarships, all requests for scholarships must be made by e-mail (becky@coppercreek.com and lornie@coppercreek.com). Full scholarships are not available and income verification is required.
The Coppercreek Memorial Fund was established to honor the late founders of Coppercreek Camp, John Lindskog and Lynne Evarts. We believe strongly in the mentoring relationships, the value of time spent in nature, and the need to “unplug” that takes place at summer camp. We are always looking for ways to open our doors to children who otherwise can not afford to attend. Through the fundraising efforts of our camp families, alumni and corporate sponsors, camp will touch the lives of children who never dreamed they could attend. Donations to our Campership program may be made through either of two non-profit organizations: the Genesee Retreat or the American Camping Association Camper Scholarship Program. The Genesee Retreat (tax id # 94-3230114) is a local Indian Valley non-profit foundation organized to help deserving Plumas County children with recreational, educational and health services. We have always believed in giving back to our own community and have directed the money donated to the Genesee Retreat to go to these children. The ACA Camp Scholarship Program funds will go to applicants who are selected from outside of Plumas County. Many of these children are part of our National Guard "Operation Purple" Program. We have hosted children of active service men and women at camp for several years now and will continue to do so with your generous help.
Please consider sponsoring a child. If you or your children have attended summer camp, you already know what a life changing event this can be. Campers create a lifetime of memories, friendships, confidence and skills. Your generosity will change a life!
"Thank you so much for providing our daughter with such a wonderful camp experience this summer. This was her first time being away from home. We heard great things about her counselor and all of the staff. She enjoyed her horseback riding lessons the most, and said the food was GREAT! Thank you again for providing this opportunity for her. We appreciated it so very much." Letter sent to camp by the parents of Deanna, 2008 Scholarship recipient There are two ways to make a contribution:
