WI Queer Campout
Activities & Info
Wisconsin Queer Campout is an annual adult summer camp fundraiser. Participants pay a subsidized price to attend the campout, and we use the profit to cover costs associated with gender-affirming surgery for a local individual (or multiple!) Community building is just as much a part of this event as the fundraising goal. For trans and/or BIPOC attendees who might not be able to cover the cost of camp, we offer "camperships" to help them cover part or all of the cost of camp, and can provide sleeping bags and sleeping mats to these campers, if needed. From Friday afternoon to Sunday morning, we gather in one large campsite to:
Put up tents and set up the campsite
Play group games and bond as a community
Cook meals, treats, and movie popcorn over a fire
Frolic at the beach
Tie-dye & screen print commemorative t-shirts
Share trans/queer joy in the outdoors
