Experience Camps at Camps Manitou and Somerset | Five Camps. One Goal. A Battle of the Camps to decide who truly is the BEST WEEK OF THE YEAR

Story

Manitou Experience is the OG of Experience Camps. It was there that this little ol' org was hatched, and it grew up quickly with a strong sense of tradition, camp values, and wacky activities. It is from here that the Experience Camps culture developed and the foundation on which everything was built. Somerset Experience came about just last year to add the girls program to our magical mixture. The combination of ManEx and SomEx is our largest camp and also our largest wait list. We still have room to grow and need your help to open more spots for grieving kids to attend. For 6 weeks, we will embrace the spirit of competition as the camper, volunteers, and friends of each camp compete against their extended camp family to see who will emerge as the winner in the Battle of the Camps.

About the charity

Experience Camps are free, one-week camps for children and teens who have experienced the death of a parent, sibling or primary caregiver. It's a place where kids can laugh, play, and learn how to cope with their losses with hope and resilience. It's a place of untethered joy and genuine emotion.
