Camp Rosenbaum 2009 is from July 19 to July 24, 2009. Check out our photo gallery for pictures.
Visitors Day is July 22, 2009 – Make sure and mark your calendars!
For 38 years Camp Rosenbaum has given more than 4,000 children from low-income housing a memorable experience many of us take for granted. A unique summer camp designed especially to serve their community.
This is no ordinary camp. The 9 to 11 year-old boys and girls who attend each year come from Housing Authorities throughout Oregon and SW Washington.
In addition to making sure the kids have a magnificent experience, the mission of Camp Rosenbaum is to show these children they can choose to live a better life away from the troubled paths of dropping out of school, crime, gangs, drugs and violence.
Camp Rosenbaumís goal is to empower children to take responsibility for their lives, make the right choices, and turn away from the allure of trouble. What we reinforce is the hope and direction for a better future.
Camp Rosenbaum is comprised of volunteers from the servicing housing authorities, The Oregon Air National Guard, the Portland Police Bureau, as well as several local county, city and state law enforcement and fire protection agencies. Read more about our volunteers »
