The week at ‘Camp’ Camp is hands-down the most powerful week of the year for me in terms of feeding my soul.
For the first time in my 44 years, I found a place, a people, where I belong. … I march to a different drum. But at ‘Camp’ Camp, EVERYONE does. We are all beautiful, loving misfits, and I was seen, truly seen, for the first time ever. You can go your whole life without ever finding that.
…I gained a community of loving, caring, generous people to share the rest of the journey with. The comradery, the laughs, the tears… I could never have predicted or expected to be loved and accepted without condition.
Camp has changed the way I feel about myself. It fills my heart with so much love and joy that I can make it through another year in the Heteronormative world. Camp is SO healing.
This was one of the best weeks of my life. No drama, no gimmicks, just fun and love and acceptance. I came in knowing no one and left with 200+ new friends. I want to bring all my queer friends so they can all have their own unique and wonderful experiences at this wonderful queer utopia.
Every single person made the effort to support me in my camping experience so that it was truly, unbelievably, amazingly the best time I’ve ever had at camp or any other vacation I’ve ever had!
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.
It’s affordable and awesome!
It’s one of the few places I feel most seen for who I am and valued for it in a way I don’t feel valued for it in the world all the time. It lifts me up for the rest of the year.
…one of the most supportive and LGBT-friendly environments I have ever experienced.
Why do 75% of the people who come to Camp return for another year or more? There are a million little reasons ‘Camp’ Camp has earned its tagline “Best Time Ever!” but this brochure gives you 7 big ones!
