In the sun-kissed state of California, where palm trees sway to the beat of ocean waves and the mountains stand tall and mighty, there exists a special group of kids who are anything but ordinary. These are the 'Horseback Heroes', a troop of adventure-loving, horse-riding kids whose tales of fun and bravery would make even the mightiest cowboy tip his hat!

Leading this pack of cowkids is a hilarious character who goes by the name of 'Cowboy Cal'. Cal, with his freckled face, sun-bleached hair, and twinkling blue eyes, is as Californian as the golden sunshine itself. But don’t let his fluffy hair and shiny braces fool you - when he dons his cowboy hat and mounts his trusty steed, ‘Sir Neigh-a-lot’, he's as dashing and gallant as any hero from an old western movie.

Cowboy Cal and the rest of the Horseback Heroes spend their days galloping along the golden beaches, racing through the lush vineyards, and exploring the mighty Yosemite valleys. Every day is a wild, winding adventure. And just when you think they might be too tired to continue, they break out into laughter, make funny faces (that only a mother could love), and start a new journey anew. With their unwavering spirit, contagious laughter, and their loyal horses, these kids paint a picture of California that's as vibrant as a Hollywood movie and as warm as freshly baked apple pie. So saddle up, and giddy up, kids! The Horseback Heroes of California are here to whisk you away on an unforgettable ride!

Camp provides a safe and secure environment for children to learn, grow, and have fun. Campers and staff are empowered to become leaders, to develop spiritual and personal growth, and to build lasting friendships. We provide an opportunity for campers to learn to navigate life’s challenges and serve the broader community. We believe that each person can have a positive influence on our world and to that end, we use the example of a young seminarian named Michael. His example of reaching out to others, helping them, and using the gifts and talents God gave him serves as an inspiration for campers and staff alike. 

At camp, campers are surrounded by nature and taught to respect the environment. Through our Nature Program, campers learn the Leave-No-Trace wilderness ethic and the names of local trees and plants. We ask campers and staff to respect all life and avoid the unnecessary picking of leaves or killing of bugs. Campers are encouraged to take this "Michael-like" spirit home with them, helping to make our world more loving and life-giving.

Tom Sawyer Camps has been a beloved tradition in the Pasadena area since 1926. Every summer, campers ages 3-14 from all over the area get to experience carefree outdoor activities in a rustic setting in the Hahamongna Watershed Park. The camp day is split between scheduled activities such as swimming, horseback riding, archery, and rock wall climbing, and free time where campers can explore and create in the wilderness. During free time, campers can build forts, create dams in the mud river, and complete imaginative challenges. All of these experiences provide campers with an opportunity to get back to nature, just like Tom Sawyer and Becky Thatcher did in the classic literature.

Horse Camp is a special experience, where campers learn about horses and horsemanship. They learn how to groom a horse, how to tack (put on the horse’s saddle and bridle), and how to ride. The Horse Camp curriculum is the same each week, but each camper’s riding experiences will vary.

Another activity that we offer is Computer, Robotics, Entrepreneurship and Imagination Camps. The campers use the same tools and activities each week, but the projects, products, and challenges will vary.
