What is CTAC?

The Chiloquin Teen Adventure Camp was launched during the Summer of 2025 and is a dynamic six-week summer learning program exclusively for middle and high school students in Chiloquin, Oregon. Designed to be engaging, educational, and fun, the camp offers structured experiences that nurture creativity, build life skills, and strengthen community connections.

Each week of camp is built around a different theme, allowing participants to explore a wide variety of activities that might spark lifelong passions—or even future careers.

Who Can Join?

The program is open to Chiloquin-area youth entering grades 7–12. All activities, field trips, supplies, and meals are provided at no cost thanks to generous community support and partnerships.
