Old School: History Camp for Today’s Kids 2026

Join us for a fun three day adventure for kids ages 6 – 10 during Spring Break!
We will have fun learning about the history of Oregon and doing all kinds of activities, indoors and out, at the Shelton McMurphey Johnson House. This camp will be on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday from 9am to 2pm.
Camp will be led by an instructor and a teen helper and will have a max of 10 students. You bring your own lunch and water bottle and we provide all the fun historical games and activities. Camp stays on the site of the SMJ house each day. Open to kids of all gender expressions. We provide non-gendered dress up clothing for different sizes of bodies.
We are happy to talk with you about any accommodations your child may need. The house does not have an elevator and has three floors. Most of the time we will be on the ground floor of the house but if everyone is able to walk up the stairs we may visit other floors.
This camp is jointly run by SCEC and the SMJ house. Registration and cost will be determined soon.
