Camp Outright

Overview

Camp Outright is Vermont’s sole residential summer camp with a queer twist! Nestled in the stunning natural beauty of our state, it's a vibrant camp that’s all about queer joy, finding your people, adventure, fun, and community. Your identity is not just accepted but it's celebrated and you can experience true belonging!

Campers ages 13-17 find their people and experience the joy and power of being their authentic selves. At Camp, youth don't have to justify their identity to anyone - they are embraced and celebrated for who they are! Together with other queer, trans, and allied youth and adults, they can participate in building a supportive, affirming intentional community and experience a feeling of belonging and the freedom to just be kids.

Campers enjoy activities based on their interests, from nature activities to visual and performing arts, to sports and social change workshops. It’s a great mix of fun and personal growth with lots of queer joy to go around. Join us for an unforgettable, powerful summer!

And did we mention Winter Reunion?! Open only to those who attended Camp Outright during the same year, campers can reconnect with their camp friends for this bonus weekend to enjoy Vermont’s winter wonderland. There’s sledding, winter games, and a cozy lodge where campers can curl up with a good book. Don’t worry; there’s heat in the lodging for Winter Reunion!
