CAMP CAMP FUN IN THE WOODS
Camp’ Camp! . . . America’s premiere summer camp for GLBT adults!
Since 1997, ‘Camp’ Camp has offered a fun and distinctive vacation for the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community. Camp is structured just like the sleep-away summer camp that you remember from when you were young(er), with a full program of great outdoor, athletic, and arts & crafts activities and a variety of entertaining evening social events. Located in scenic southwestern Maine, ‘Camp’ Camp is the perfect alternative vacation for adventurous members of the GLBT community looking for a unique vacation option beyond the usual gay cruise or resort. It’s a gay camp for adults! …What could be better than that?
A week at Camp includes all activities, meals and accommodations – plus, all the new friends you can handle! With a wide variety of activities such as mountain biking, pottery, hiking, lake swimming, sailing, stained glass, tennis, softball, theater, volleyball, yoga, and an adventure course and climbing wall, you’re sure to find something to keep you active and challenged, returning home relaxed and renewed. Camp is the perfect place to rediscover the kid in yourself – and maybe even discover the athlete or artist you didn’t know you were.
Accommodations are rustic, but comfortable: cabins with bunks and attached bathrooms, shared by groups of 5-20 men or women. While the cabins are indeed camp-like, the food is not – you’ll find no bug juice or Jell-O at our camp. Our chef makes a special effort to make all the food plentiful, healthy, and delicious.
Camp is typically attended by around 200 men and women, ranging in age from 18 to their 70s. The majority of Campers have historically come from the Northeastern U.S. (mostly from the Boston and New York City metropolitan areas), but GLBT folks from such places as Florida, California, Michigan, British Columbia, Georgia, Iowa, Ontario and Ohio also make ‘Camp’ Camp their yearly destination. The price is about $1000. NOTE – This camp is NOT sex or liquor focused! For more info, visit their site.
