OVERNIGHT SKATE CAMP 2023

We are accepting scholarship applications until March 31.
Public registration opens Tuesday April 11, 8pm PST. 

ABOUT OVERNIGHT CAMP

Our overnight skate camp is a skateboarding paradise! Located on a beautiful lake outside Sequoia National Park, this camp offers a unique connection to nature and community. This camp is for all skill levels - from folks who have never skateboarded before to those that want to take their skill to the next level. Skaters will get to shred, sing karaoke, swim, and gain lifelong friendships with others! Just a 4 hour drive from Los Angeles and the San Francisco Bay Area, the camp features 5 different skate parks (wood + concrete), a lakeside launch ramp, swimming, boating, arts & crafts, wilderness skills & activities, beach parties and campfire hangouts every night. Whether you've been skating for years or it's your first time on a board, this camp is for you!

Location: YMCA Skate Camp, Camp Sequoia Lake: 49716 HWY180 Miramonte, CA 93641

Note: This camp is an exclusive space for skaters who identify as girls, women, trans, non-binary, and/or gender expansive​.

2023 CAMP DATES & REGISTRATION FEES

WEEK 1: JULY 30-AUG 4 (GIRLS &/OR TRANS YOUTH AGES 8-17) *NEW* = $799

Registration fees includes all activities, accommodations, meals, and giveaways. The fee does not cover transportation to and from Camp Sequioa Lake. Participants are responsible for their own transportation to and from camp. 

Traveling to camp from outside of California:
We recommend flying in and out of either Fresno Airport (FAT), LAX (or any of the surrounding airports), SFO, OAK or SJC and renting a car to drive to camp and/or working together with other campers to make it more cost effective. We will sending out a shared google document to registered campers and parents for those who would like to share their contact info to coordinate carpools. You will be able to connect directly with each other. Skate Like a Girl cannot guarantee any assistance with coordination and/or communication.


*GIRLS &/OR TRANS YOUTH
Welcome to girls, trans, non-binary and/or gender expansive skaters ages 8-17.

**WOMEN &/OR TRANS
Anyone who does not identify as a cisgender male, including women, trans, non-binary and/or gender expansive skaters. Open to all ages 6-100 so no, you’re not “too old”!

"I spent the first two days of camp in awe of the community and space created by the SLAG team and campers. A lot of orgs like to boast non-hierarchical leadership and listening to feedback, but this is the first time I truly Felt like every single person had a voice at all times. Everyone was accepted and included, regardless of skill level or identity. You know how, in high school, it felt like there was never a place to sit at lunch? This is the opposite of that. There’s always a seat at the table - and you are valued, respected, and loved."
