Showers

Shower blocks are in the morning, night, and free time. Showers are in private stalls with locking doors to ensure maximum privacy. Our restrooms are all-gender.

 

Meals

Campers must attend breakfast, lunch, and dinner each day, plus snacks! Meals are served family style. Most allergies and dietary restrictions can be accommodated. Campers can also participate in our Kitchen Crew. This group assists our Kitchen Manager in cooking, serving, and cleaning. 

 

Activities

A variety of activities are available to choose from each block, accommodating a wide range of interests, skills, and abilities.  Most activities are self-selected by campers during the week, creating a tailored camp experience.

• Outdoor Activities: Explore our campsite's hundreds of acres by hiking, boating, and swimming, or try your hand at our challenge course, archery, and more.

• Creative Activities: Sew stuffed creatures, make clay models, and tie dye t-shirts in the art cabin, or write stories and poems during creative writing. There’s endless ways to be creative at Camp Lilac!

• Board, Card, and Role Playing Games & Activities: Play Dungeons & Dragons, practice your improv skills, and much more!

• Trans-Centered Activities: Celebration of trans identities is inherent in everything we do at camp, but we also host makeup and hair tutorials, voice training, and more!

• Evening Programs: Each night, the camp comes together for a big event, like a bonfire, dance party, variety show, or capture the flag. 

We are always welcoming new ideas. Please reach out to campers@camplilac.org with your suggestions!
