CAMP PROGRAM INFO: 100 Years of Friendship and Fun
B’nai B’rith Camp (lovingly known as “BB Camp”) is a rite of passage for thousands of kids, their parents, their grandparents… and yes, even their GREAT grandparents for over 100 years. Generation after generation has loved and longed to return to this ultra-inclusive sanctuary on the stunning Oregon coast.
To Go to BB Camp is to be Obsessed with BB Camp
We welcome you to this magical community that nourishes lifelong friendships, leadership skills, and spiritual growth. All year, kids from the Pacific Northwest and beyond anticipate returning to camp to disconnect from everyday life and reunite with friends, counselors, and staff.
Whether it’s for a day at our day camps or multiple weeks at our overnight camps, we ground everything we do in a perfect combination of fun, meaning, and togetherness, based on Jewish values and rituals. We aim to ensure every child feels seen, heard, safe, and more confident than when they arrived.
Choose Your Own Adventure
On any given day, you’ll find kids and teens boating on Devil’s Lake, challenging themselves on the ropes course, ziplining through the field, or participating in performing arts, crafts, and nature. BB Camp is bursting with activities from the active to the serene, and we always end the week celebrating Shabbat as a camp community.
Our Staff is Our Secret Sauce
BB Camp would not be BB Camp without its campers-turned-counselors who know the culture and ethos of this magical place through and through. Our well-trained, dedicated, and caring staff are crucial to the experience.
Where Diversity Thrives and Belonging Blossoms
BB Camp is proud to be a boundless Kehila (community) of different ages, denominations, backgrounds, languages, and abilities. No matter where you come from or what your background may be, you’ll find a place to belong at BB Camp.

Canyonview Camp and Ministries was founded in 1953 as Bible Teaching Inc. by Ernie and Fern Campbell. Starting with 64 acres of land, their dream was to start a ministry that would allow people of all ages to hear the truth of the Gospel. Ministries included radio broadcasting, a Bible college, a printing press, and finally a Christian camp. With each of these ministries, Canyonview's emphasis has been and always will be
“Speaking the Truth in Love."
Vision
Canyonview will continue as a trusted partner in the evangelical community to bring hope and healing to a hurting world through the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Mission
With a biblical foundation, Canyonview provides a safe outdoor environment, spiritually vibrant programs, and practical leadership training to impact youth, adults, and families in the local community and beyond.
Our Programs
Day camps provide local churches with full programs for elementary school children as well as skilled, caring counselors, nutritious snacks, Bible times, songs, and an entertaining evening for families.Youth camps promote the knowledge of God through His creation, hands-on activities, Bible instruction, and loving counselors.
