What Camp Programs Does Camp Como Offer?

Camp Como runs camps year-round and splits its offerings into summer and winter sessions, age-based tracks for elementary through high school, and several special programs. The site lists Snow Camp, Wilderness Backpacking, Camp Intern Adventures, and Young at Heart alongside a general overview and schedule page, so families and group leaders can match a program to an age and season before registering. The camp is a Christian camp in Como, Colorado, and its programs are framed around outdoor adventure and growing in faith.

Summer and Winter Camps

Camp Como serves campers all year. Summer programs run on the camp's own schedule; when those sessions are not running, the camp is rented out to groups. Winter programming is built around what the site describes as a good amount of snow and high-elevation sunshine.

The site separates these into Summer Retreats and Winter Retreats, each with its own "Learn More" page. If you are planning around a specific season, start with the overview and schedule page, then confirm dates on the relevant seasonal page.

Age-Based Program Options

The program menu organizes campers by age group:

• Elementary Age Options — for younger campers
• Middle School Options — for the middle-school years
• High School Options — for high-school campers
• Snow Camp — a winter session listed as its own program
• Young at Heart — a program listed separately from the youth tracks

The site does not publish ages, lengths, or dates for each track on the pages reviewed here, so treat the age labels as the starting filter and check the individual program pages for specifics.

Special Programs

Beyond the standard age tracks, Camp Como lists several distinctive options:

The site also mentions high-adventure activities — high ropes, a giant swing, zipline, laser tag, and indoor rock climbing — which groups can choose from. These are activity options rather than standalone camps, so confirm which ones are included in a given program.

Group Rentals

Camp Como rents the site year-round to Christian groups for worship and retreats, and it also rents whenever its own summer programs are not running. If you are bringing a church, school, or other group rather than sending individual campers, the rental path is the relevant one: the site invites you to request a quote and points to a "Rent Camp Como for your group" page. Facilities named on the site include the Lillie Building, South End Cabins, and Butterfield Dining Hall.

Planning Your Visit

To choose a program:

1. Open the Overview and schedule page to see what runs when.
2. Pick the season — summer or winter — that fits your calendar.
3. Match the camper's age to the elementary, middle school, or high school track, or look at Snow Camp, Wilderness Backpacking, Camp Intern Adventures, or Young at Heart if one of those fits better.
4. Use Register & help to sign up, or Contact the camp with questions.
5. For groups, go through the rental and quote request instead of individual registration.

Location and Setting

Camp Como sits on 240 acres at the foot of Little Baldy Mountain and Mt. Silverheels, about a mile above the historic town of Como, Colorado, at 10,125 feet. It borders Pike National Forest on two sides. From Denver it is roughly an hour southwest on Highway 285 over Kenosha Pass; from Colorado Springs, about 90 minutes; and from Breckenridge, about 55 minutes via Fairplay year-round (Boreas Pass Road is a summer-only alternative). The setting — aspen and evergreen forest with 13,000-foot peaks nearby — is central to how the camp describes its programs, so factor in the altitude and drive time when planning.

What to Confirm Before Registering

The site's program pages are the authority on dates, ages, and cost. Before committing, check the specific program page for eligibility and schedule, confirm whether a program is a full session or a shorter trip (as with Wilderness Backpacking), and ask about activity availability if a particular option like the zipline or climbing wall matters to your group. For rentals, request a quote rather than assuming availability.
