OVERNIGHT CAMP

WE'RE MORE THAN JUST A CAMP Camp Hazen is a child-centered community. We focus on each individual and teach skills that kids will use forever. Whether it’s learning a new activity, making friends, or becoming more resilient, independent, and understanding, we know that campers return home inspired to live in a way that will make them proud. WE'RE A PLACE WHERE PEOPLE CONNECT AND TRULY BELONG There is no better feeling than coming home from camp having had the experience of a lifetime. Year after year, campers leave Camp Hazen having found their best friends. And each summer, the joy of reuniting with counselors and old friends is the best reward after a year away. Kids simply love Camp Hazen, and whether it is their first time or they are a lifelong Hazenite, campers find that they belong here more than any other place in the world.
