Camp Mather reopened for 2022 after two years of pandemic-related closures. And though Covid did cause some interruptions this year, it was wonderful that so many families were able to return to — or have a first visit at — Camp this year. In fact, we’re already looking ahead to next summer, and that begins by reflecting on this year’s successes and challenges.

That’s where you come in: Did you visit Camp in 2022? Please help us by taking our Friends of Camp Mather 2022 Camper Survey! We’re eager to hear from you and other campers about your experience, feedback, and ideas for Camp Mather. You can complete the survey via a quick Google Form at https://forms.gle/Q4nGgWKKbHw8kavG6 (and feel free to share the link with family or friends who visited Camp in 2022).
 

We hope to hear from you!

San Francisco Recreation and Parks (SFRPD) has informed us that Camp Mather will be closed Weeks 4 and 5 (June 26–July 9, 2022) due to a Covid-related staff shortage. Campers registered for these weeks will be contacted by the SFRPD management team with options for potential rescheduling or refund.

We are disappointed, but we do hope Camp will reopen for the remaining weeks of summer. Friends of Camp Mather is in touch with SFRPD team and will share any news as we get it.
