About RAD Camps

R.A.D. Camps are operated by Adam Sather and Eric Jackson, both residents of beautiful Bend, OR. Eric and Adam have 18 years of combined experience working with youth and also currently spend their winters as Head Coaches at a non-profit youth education foundation. They are passionate about teaching how to explore and enjoy the great outdoors while being "impact free." R.A.D. Camps provides an opportunity for kids to enjoy and learn about the wilderness environment.

Both Adam and Eric have unique personalities that enable them to connect with people and that kids can easily relate to. By starting R.A.D. Camps, they hope to give back to the community by providing an opportunity for kids to get out and enjoy all that Oregon has to offer and learn about the wilderness in the process!

R.A.D. Camps operates under a special use permit with the United States Forest Service and emphasizes safety, fun, camaraderie, and an appreciation for the natural world. Guides are First Aid/ CPR Certified.
