time to have fun & give back

August 14, 2013 By Camp Camp Leave a Comment

Well, it’s almost time… ‘Camp’ Camp 2013 is just a few days away! We’re hosting a sold-out crowd of 242 people from all over the country, plus Hungary and the U.K., each of them ready to have the best time ever! Thirty-eight of this year’s Campers have been with us for an unbelievable 10 years or more, including this year’s 15th-Year Campers, Cheryl S. of Medford, MA, Phil C. of Quincy, MA, and Vicki H. of Ann Arbor, MI. This year, we will again be continuing our (recent) tradition of donating $100 in each of their names to the It Gets Better Project in honor of their noteworthy Camp anniversary.

Last year, we stepped up our efforts to support the GLBT community even further with our new “Camp Gives Back” campaign. With this campaign, we are donating 10% of our Camp Store sales each year to an organization benefitting the GLBT community. Last year, we were able to donate almost $1100 to Mainers United for Marriage, one of the organizations instrumental in helping Maine make history last November when they became the first state in the country to pass marriage equality by voter referendum. Yay, Maine!

logoThis year, we have chosen The True Colors Fund as the recipient of our “Camp Gives Back” campaign. The True Colors Fund was co-founded in 2008 by musician Cyndi Lauper and, through their Give a Damn Campaign, aims to inspire and engage everyone, especially straight people, to become active participants in the advancement of equality for all. Their Forty to None Project helps to raise awareness about and bring an end to GLBT youth homeless. Both worthy causes, don’t you think?

Those of you who will be attending Camp next week can help the True Colors Fund in their efforts by just buying an extra Camp t-shirt or souvenir or two (or three) in the Camp Store. You’ll also be able to make additional donations to True Colors via your Cashless ‘Camp’ Camp account. If you aren’t able to attend Camp this summer, we suggest popping over to the True Colors Fund and making a donation. Being a teenager is difficult enough, yet each year between 500,000 and 1.6 million youth find themselves homeless in America. As many as 40% of these youth find themselves homeless because of their sexual orientation or gender identity. Camp hopes our efforts will help at least a little in raising awareness of their plight and getting some of these kids the assistance, education, and empowerment they deserve.  We encourage you to join us – and make a donation today.

Thank you all for the gift of a wonderful week. I appreciate your patience, care, generosity, understanding, attention to detail, hard work, creativity, openness, effort, and LOVE!
Thom H., Salem, MA
…one of the most supportive and LGBT-friendly environments I have ever experienced.
Warren H., New York, NY
It is the most positive experience I participate in and makes my year!
Michael S., Astoria, NY
All the important things, the take-aways, I got from summer camp as a child remain still as an adult. I get a chance to make new friends, try new things, and rekindle my spirit. 
Mary Beth K., Columbia, SC
Everything was amazing!!!
Gary E., Ogdensburg, NY
My friends never stop talking about it, and now I know why!
Jason S., Brooklyn, NY
Cheers to all who put in such effort to make a safe, wonderful, and fun environment. Flawlessly executed direction and organization. …Extremely well done.
Heather L., Brookline, NH
Loved it!
Todd B., Greensboro, NC
I just love Camp. It gives me the opportunity to totally & literally unplug. No cell phone, no computer… total vacation time for me.
Charles L., Colrain, MA
Everyone was so friendly when we first arrived. I was hooked!  …’Camp’ Camp feels like home.
Lisa M., Wallingford, CT
Thanks for continuing to make ‘Camp’ Camp a place for us to relax, unwind and be ourselves!!
Scott T., Chicago, IL
I laughed more in one week than I did all year.
Richard H., Montreal, QC
It’s a week I wait for every year.
Michael L., Tucson, AZ
The food was outstandingly amazing! …I loved that there were so many vegan options.
IlanaRei G., Malden, MA
I’m not a terribly social person and large groups can make me uncomfortable. That being said, I never felt safer in a group of people so quickly before.
Shelley D., Nashville, TN
There is no place on earth like ‘Camp’ Camp, and I feel renewed and light-hearted there in ways I don’t feel at home or in any other community.
Debbie D., Holden, ME
I love the grounds; they are so beautiful and serene. It made it easy to do nothing and just enjoy the nature sounds.
Linda B., Cincinnati, OH
I learned so much and created some beautiful things in my jewelry and pottery classes. We are very fortunate to have such amazing teachers in all of the activities at Camp.
Barry R., New York, NY
I’ve never had as much fun anywhere as I do at Camp.
Linda R., Manchester, NH
Totally fabulous. …The spirit of Camp is so joyful and fun and silly and accepting all at once.
Daphne B., Hamden, CT
All the evening activities were outstanding. So much fun!
Glynn G., Lowell, MA
Camp really is the “Best Time Ever!” Sounds corny, but it’s true.
Wendy H., Raleigh, NC
I’ve been to festivals and conventions, and even camp as a kid, and been overwhelmed by the number of people, and felt lost in the shuffle. That didn’t happen here! Returning Campers and Staff, as well as other first-years, were very friendly. I never felt alone or isolated.
Nicole Y., Ann Arbor, MI
It’s like I’ve been recharged. …It is the one place where I can be my truest self. You can’t put a price on that.
Michael G., Brooklyn, NY
I love the Camp experience and always feel rejuvenated after attending.
Sherron W., Edison, NJ
You have built a wonderful community. …I came away very impressed.
Estelle D., Cambridge, MA
It’s affordable and awesome!
Samantha A., Norfolk, VA
It is the most fun I have all year. And I love the people.
Michelle R., Brighton, MA
I’ve traveled a lot, and I’ve never found another place as warm and welcoming as ‘Camp’ Camp; not even close!
David P., Endicott, NY
I keep returning for the community and sense of peace, love, and all around decency. 
Lyndsey F., Santa Rosa, CA
I was most surprised at how welcoming, caring, and lovely each and every Camper and Staff member was. …Thank you for continuing to offer this wonderful environment after all these years.
Sage W., New Orleans, LA
I’ve always felt welcome and included at Camp, perhaps more there than in many other places at home.
Jen V., Cincinnati, OH
The diversity within our community is astounding, and I feel that everyone was welcome…and especially appreciate that the whole age spectrum of our community was included, from the energetic (sometimes scared) kids to our esteemed elders.
Lori M., Merriam, KS
‘Camp’ Camp is a safe, embracing, loving, exciting, entertaining, outgoing, respectful, joyful, honest space. I cannot pass that up.
Christina K., Lawndale, CA
The food was fantastic throughout the week, and there’s always lots of fun things to do all day long.
Tony J., Tampa, FL
I love this place!
Stephanie V., Exeter, NH
This place changed my life. I am a better person because of Camp.
Geoff L., Los Angeles, CA
The openness of everyone’s attitudes and acceptance was intoxicating.
Brandon W., New Orleans, LA
…Everyone made me feel very welcome, from Staff to Campers.
Adam H., Lafayette, LA
With all the talk about “community,” I’ve never experienced a feeling of gay community anywhere but at ‘Camp’ Camp. That alone is enough of a draw for me.
Bill S., Norristown, PA
I met some really amazing and very special people that I otherwise would have never crossed paths with. My heart doubled in size in just one week.
Gina Y., Houston, TX

Our Campers tell us it's the amazingly fun & friendly people they meet at Camp that keep them coming back again & again. Here's one of those 'Camp' Camp people: Pottery Instructor Collette Bailey of Waxhaw, NC ('18-'20). Collette first came to us three summers ago and quickly become our resident Mama Bear, leaving the hubby and kids at home each August since to frolic with all the queers in the woods of Maine, showing us how to turn lumps of clay into fabulous little works of art. We're so glad she found us, and thrilled she'll be back for her 4th summer this August! ... 📸 Opening Circle, #campcamp2019⁠

One of the reasons so many of our Campers (over 75% of them) tell us that they make at least one return visit to 'Camp' Camp is that Camp creates a safe space for LGBTQ adults 21 to 75+ to be themselves for a week, working towards personal authenticity. It's amazing what a fun & fabulous week with a great LGBTQ community from all over the country can do for your spirits! 🤩🤩🤩 ...
