About

Mission Statement

We are devoted to helping those with special needs and those who support them by providing an accommodating environment for healing, respite, education, and recreation

History

Camp Tuolumne Trails was conceived in 2002 when its founders, Jerry and Paula Baker, started looking for ways to give back. After enjoying a successful career in the semiconductor industry, they felt it was time to move into the world of philanthropy. Many years before, the seed of supporting children with disabilities and special medical needs was planted when their youngest son was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Happily, he recovered, but the traumatic experience of caring for a seriously ill child gave them a perspective that would affect the rest of their lives. With this in mind, they established the Jerry and Paula Baker Foundation.

After retiring to the beautiful Sierra foothills, the concept of an accommodating and fully-accessible camp, purpose-built for children with special medical needs was born. In 2005, the Bakers and their team broke ground. In June of 2008 Camp Tuolumne Trails welcomed its first campers. In 2016 Camp Tuolumne Trails expanded their programs to include residential camps for adults with disabilities and their families.

Sixteen years later, Tuolumne Trails continues its quest to be the most accommodating facility in the state, with added amenities and services to enrich the experience of all campers.
