And this is the location for the Columbia River Family Geology Camp, where you can expect to have a wonderful family vacation, built around studying and experiencing the geology of the area from a Biblical perspective.

*Covid 19 considerations:
Sleeping arrangements – Families have their own areas, even in the bunk house. You are also welcome to come and camp or bring your RV. The cost for your registration is reduced when you do this!
Meals: In the past, meals were served buffet style. Peniel Ranch will be changing this to family style dining, with appropriate social distancing.
Social distancing, whether for seminars or activities, will be encouraged. The camp is observing a very meticulous cleaning regimen to ensure the best environment for all.
If you have experienced a financial hardship during this unprecedented time, Peniel Ranch still wants for you to be able to attend the camps. Please call them to talk over options to make it feasible for you to attend. They love to help!
