Lair of the Bear Virtual Info Session
We hosted a virtual information session on Wednesday, December 18 at 7:00 p.m. Attendees learned about the Lair, asked questions, and discovered why campers keep comping back year after year!
Discover what the Lair is all about!
You are invited to view our virtual Info Session and discover what makes the Lair of the Bear a home away from home for our campers. During this hour-long event, you will meet some of the Lair team and hear about our staff-led kids’ programming; art, nature, and athletic activities; beautiful setting; and much more! If you would like to meet us in person, you are also invited to our in-person Open House at the Alumni House on Sunday, February 2, 2025.
The Lair welcomes all– you don’t need to be Cal alumni to attend!
