PROGRAMS FOR 2SLGBTQ+ YOUTH & ALLIES

Find the Rainbow Camp® Program That Fits You

Rainbow Camp® programming includes overnight camp, leadership and adventure experiences, family programming, and year-round connection. Traditional summer camp sessions are not running in 2026, but our commitment to 2SLGBTQ+ youth and allies continues.

2026 Programming Update

Rainbow Camp® will not be holding our traditional overnight summer camp sessions in 2026. This is a transition year as we strengthen year-round connection, move forward with plans for a permanent home, and prepare for the next chapter of Rainbow Camp®.

We are actively working toward the return of overnight programming in 2027. Rainbow Camp® and Rainbow Quest remain an important part of our future, while ROC (Rainbow Online Connection) continues to provide opportunities for year-round connection. Stay tuned — we’ll share 2027 updates as plans develop.
