Summer Day Camps
Day Camp Offerings
Each week of our magical day camp features a brand new and fully realized LARP Adventure Game where campers make their own fantastical characters to experience the Game. We spend the days leading up to the Adventure doing fun and engaging workshops to practice skills to help them in the Adventure Game (skills that also translate to real life!). Workshops include, but are not limited to, sword fighting with our patented play-safe foam swords, improv theater, character building and our own magic system!
Our summer day camps are for ages 8+, run from 9am-3pm each day and have a special evening session on Thursday nights from 6pm-9pm to play the LARP Adventure Game.

Young Adventurers
This camp is a little different from our standard summer day camps as it is geared to younger players. Instead of one LARP Adventure Game over the last two days of camp, we play little bits of the Adventure everyday by meeting age appropriate characters and helping them in unique ways. For ages 6-8 years old, it’s the perfect fit for young kids with big imaginations! Please note there is no evening session for Young Adventurers. 8 year olds can choose between Young Adventurers and our regular day camps; please call our office at (845) 481-0776 if you need help deciding!
Cost: $525. Early reg. $500

Offseason Overnight Camps
Offseason Overnight Events
Wayfinder’s Offseason Overnights are a chance for the community to come together and connect year-round. These events offer our participants the chance to see friends and share in the communal setting we build at camp, and to play an Adventure Game! We hold them seasonally and look forward to creating space for our campers as often as we can. All these events will be held at Holmes Camp and Retreat Center, Holmes, NY.
Come and play with us!
Fall Game
Fall Game’s Adventure Games are light hearted comedy fantasy romps that allow for participants to get the character based play that we all love so much in a light low stakes story. Join us for a fun filled weekend that promises to be full of laughter.
This year’s Adventure is The Voyage of the Timetanic, and take place on September 27th-29th 2024.
Cost: $525
Winter Game
At Winter Game the Adventure Game is our summer standby of epic adventure based stories. Players get the chance to play a character in a world shifting story line, fighting off evil and working together to save the world. Close out the year with us and bring a little bit of magic into the next year with you.
There are both a 2 night and 3 night option. Hearthfire attendance is included for participants with the three night option.
This year’s Adventure Game is The Conclave by Pika Whitman.
Spring Game
For Spring Game we play horror Adventure Games. Players get the chance to play in a horror movie style setting where the fun is very much in the fear. Players will have the chance both to scare and get scared as we all face down the horrors together. Come out for a weekend of fun and fear as we ramp up to another summer of fun.
Spring Game *New Dates* April 4th-6th, 2025.
