New Camp Mountain Run Facilities Rental System!

Camp Mountain Run has a new state of the art Facility Rental System for your use. We have migrated all of our reservations to the new system and it is up and running! While the system is very intuitive, we have posted 3 short orientation videos on how to use the system. We are very happy to be able to serve your needs and this solution has been thoroughly reviewed by our council and many others as one of the best camp reservation systems out there.

We offer an email based form of contact, called MailChimp. You can join our email list by clicking on the “Join Email List”. We do our best to not overwhelm you with emails and send only related emails to your interests. We do not sell our list to any other third parties.
