Camp Champions is one of the top overnight camps in Texas, offering 1-, 2-, and 3-week sessions for campers aged 5-17.

In addition to exciting activities and an outstanding facility, Camp Champions (1) builds strong kids, (2) has the best staff, and (3) operates tech-free.

1. Camp Champions builds strong kids.

When we talk about “building strong kids”, we mean campers who have grown the skills to excel in school, build strong friendships, and become good decision-makers.

We are one of just four camps in the country to be named an Exemplar Program by the Partnership for 21^st Century Learning (P21.org).

2. Camp Champions has the best counselors.

There are two things we do differently to develop the best staff:

First, Camp Champions counselors commit to not drinking alcohol for the duration of the summer, including on off time.

Second, our counselors have a full two week orientation, the longest training of any camp we know of.

3. Camp Champions operates tech-free
   

We know that overexposure to screens and social media is causing negative health outcomes for kids (both physical and emotional). We know that this is only getting worse.

Camp is one of the few places left where we can cut the technological umbilical cord and kids (and even teenagers!) will thank us for it. Showing kids that they can be spectacular without a phone in their hands may be one of the most important outcomes of camp in 2023.
