When we ask our Campers what keeps them coming back to ‘Camp’ Camp year after year, we get the same response that first-time Campers give when we ask what surprised them most about Camp: the people. So it’s pretty obvious that the fun & friendly community of LGBTQ people that make Camp an annual destination plays an integral part in that whole “best time ever” thing we’ve got goin’ on!

And ‘Camp’ Camp 2019 isn’t going to be any different. As of July 13th, we have 231 Campers hailing from 33 states here in the U.S., along with three Canadian provinces, the U.K., the West Indies, New Zealand, and the Czech Republic.
