The Painted Turtle

Imagine a cabin village nestled in a scenic valley created specifically to bring the joys of a traditional summer camp to children aged 7-16, who never would have dreamed that they could be exposed to such a life-changing experience.

Recognizing the significant benefits “The Painted Turtle Camp” brings to these children and their families—who all attend the camp free of charge—Centennial Founders sponsored its first fundraiser for the organization in 2007.

Centennial has been a long time supporter of The Painted Turtle and we are excited to be a sponsor of an upcoming event in late July. Centennial previously sponsored “Hot August Nights” at Tournament Players Club in Valencia and “Denim & Diamonds Casino Royale” was held at the Chimbole Cultural Center in Palmdale. Together the events raised more than $200,000.

The Painted Turtle Camp, which is part of the international Hole in the Wall Camps family founded by Paul Newman, includes a state-of-the-art medical facility, a gym and game room, arts and crafts center, a heated pool with wheelchair access, equestrian center, riding trails, a ropes adventure course and more.

The Painted Turtle is also raising funds as an official charity of the LA Marathon and 5K! Run, walk, or wheel to help change the lives of our campers. For more information, please contact marathon@thepaintedturtle.org.
