Family & Community Camp Experience
- Year- Round Opportunities
- CA Statewide Trips
The EGE Out! Family & Community Camp Experience is a 3-day outdoor retreat bringing together family groups and community guests for nature-based bonding, rest, and shared learning. With meals, games, and group activities sponsored by EGE Foundation, the camp centers cultural restoration, environmental connection, and intergenerational joy. Activities include storytelling, scavenger hunts, water play, and campfire circles—all designed to create a welcoming, healing space in nature.
This unique program is more than just a camping trip—it’s a space for healing, connection, and empowerment where families come together to strengthen bonds, explore nature, and build community resilience. Many BIPOC communities face barriers to accessing outdoor spaces due to systemic inequities. Our camp experience is designed to break those barriers, providing a safe, inclusive environment where families can reconnect with nature and learn new skills.
