Teens Learning Leadership
Hands-on in the California Sierras
White Stag Leadership Camp is 21 miles (33 km) west of Truckee, California. Tall Fir trees and high alpine meadows form our camp in the Tahoe National Forest, far from the uncomfortable hot weather and dry, dusty conditions common in interior coastal California.
During leadership camp, you can enjoy swimming, canoeing, rowing, rock climbing and rappelling, hiking, and look forward to campfire and songfests. There are multiple trails to choose from leading to many nearby lakes and peaks.
White Stag Sierra will make your summer memorable. Make new friends and learn leadership. White Stag Sierra leadership camp is set for July 9-15, 2023 at Camp Robert Cole in the Tahoe National Forest, California. Camp fees begin at only $490, less than many comparable programs. Only 120 candidates are accepted. Apply early to assure yourself a space.
White Stag Sierra at Camp Robert Cole, California, was founded in 1958. It has provided leadership development experiences to thousands of youth from across the world.
