About

Campreference.com is intended to be a resource for camp professionals, camp directors, and camp counselors. Developed and maintained by “camp people” and intended for “camp people”.

Anyone who has had the pleasure of planning and/or leading a camp session knows the importance of proper planning. A camp session is more than just getting a group of children together for a week of chaos in the woods (although it can be). A well crafted camp session can be an incredibly rewarding experience for both the volunteers and campers. Our hope is that by articulating the different aspects of the camp planning experience we can support you in your camp planning adventure. No session is the same and we want to help you to craft the best session possible.

We’d also love to hear from you. Do you have a story you’d like to share with us, a question, an insatiable need to connect with other “camp people”, get in CONTACT with us.

Do you have a camp skit or camp song you'd like to share with the world?

We’d like to invite you to submit your camp resource with our online community. Everyone who’s ever been to camp knows that there are certain songs, skits, and chants that every camp has in common. We love them too, in fact, we’ve probably already added them to our resource guide, but what we don’t have is that one unique camp skit that your cabin invented in 1994, or that one song that has been lost to camp history but your oldest camp alumni just recently shared, please consider sharing it!
