Summer camp is a great place for kids to be kids. Since The Salvation Army believes it's better to build children than repair adults, what better place to build than Camp Arnold in Eatonville?

Swimming, canoeing, fishing, team and individual sports, arts and crafts, drama and music are just some of the activities offered at a session of camp. New friends and new activities help children build life skills, good citizenship, solid values and personal responsibility. All the activities are designed to increase the camper's self-esteem, confidence and spiritual awareness to succeed despite the challenging world around them.

The camp is built on land donated to The Salvation Army in the 1960's. Camp Arnold has 17 cabins, a chapel, an indoor gymnasium, a kitchen/dining hall and indoor activity area. Extensive nature trails, a wilderness challenge course, playing fields, an amphitheater and a swimming pool are also located on the 620 acres that are nestled in the foothills of Mt. Rainier.

Camp Arnold offers tailored camping opportunities for families and senior citizens who live in isolation or on fixed incomes. In the off-season, the camp facilities are made available to school districts, other non-profit organizations and corporations.
