Invest in Tomorrow's Leaders
Canyonlands Camps is a partnership of youth summer camps.
Our vision is to empower tomorrow's leaders to enjoy moments of purpose and achievement, cultivate lifelong bonds, and conserve the great outdoors.
Our mission is to invest in and support the growth of best-in-class summer camps to help future generations develop the confidence and capabilities they need to succeed.
We are building the premier camps organization through marrying exceptional business practices with the best summer camps programming. We provide our camps with solutions to support their businesses, with a particular focus on People Operations, Sales & Marketing, and back-office Administrative Services.
Culture, legacy, and brand identity are critically important to us. As such, we'll never change a camp's name or traditions. But when a camp joins Canyonlands, they're joining a collaborative community of leaders in youth development.
We're looking for a strong leadership team, top facilities, and clearly differentiated programming. If you're interested in learning more about our investing criteria, please get in touch for access to our Future Partners site!
