Yes! We love our international staff and the culture they bring to camp. To bring international staff into our camp family we use the services of agencies such as Camp Leaders and Camp America. Please fill out an application on our website and tell us if you are already working with an agency or if you still need an agency.

At Mountain Meadow Ranch, we believe that summer camp experiences equip young people with a robust and inclusive worldview, established through meaningful, real-life connections with the diverse community of people often met at camp. We also recognize and acknowledge the privileged legacy of organized camping that has often made it difficult for all populations to gain access to the camp experience. We are actively working to increase the diversity and representation of different backgrounds at our camp, through maintaining curiosity in the ways we can improve, educating ourselves to better implement those strategies of inclusion, and increasing access and/or removing obstacles to the camp experience where we can. If you would like to hear more or be a part of our efforts to make MMR a safer and more inclusive space, please reach out to us either by email to [email protected] or call us at 530-310-9281.

Each cabin at Mountain Meadow Ranch is unique in style, but every cabin has electricity, wall-to-wall carpeting, and its own bathroom and shower facilities. Many have a front deck that overlooks the central meadow. There are shelves and countertop space in the bathrooms. Cabin groups are assigned by age, grade, and gender, and in groups of 8-16 campers with 2-4 counselors at a time. Counselors and their campers work together to ensure that our cabins are clean, safe, and comfortable – a camp priority!
