Camp Winnarainbow

Camp Winnarainbow, California’s Premiere Circus and Performing Arts Sleepaway Camp was founded by cultural icon Wavy Gravy more than 36 years ago. Voted Best Overnight Summer Camp in 2011 by the readers of East Bay Parents' Press. Located 3 hours north of the Bay Area in Laytonville, within beautiful Mendocino County, Camp Winnarainbow offers one and two week sessions during the summer for children ages 7-14. Classes include circus arts, drama, multi-cultural dance and martial arts, play production, trapeze & aerials, tightrope, juggling, unicycling, stilt-walking, gymnastics, magic, music, clowning, art, and environmental awareness. All sessions end with a fabulous show for families & friends. Swimming is available every afternoon in Lake Veronica, complete with a 350-foot world-class waterslide. Organized sports are played on a regulation basketball court and open sports field. Lodging is in rustic canvas tipis. Three delicious homemade meals are served each day; always with vegetarian and vegan options. Our mission is to create a living environment of love, safety and harmony by building a diverse community of children and adults, where all can learn to appreciate one another through the performing arts. Camp Winnarainbow provides a training ground to nurture leaders for a more peaceful and sustainable world.
