Your guide to an awesome, colorful, stress‑free camp week
Welcome to the inside scoop! Here’s everything you need to know before you arrive — no stress, no surprises, just good vibes.
⭐ First things first: You don’t have to be anyone but yourself
Rainbow Teen Camp is a place where:
- You can be open, questioning, quiet, loud, artsy, sporty — anything
- Nobody expects you to know all the answers
- Everyone is respected and included
Come as you are, leave as an upgraded version of yourself ✨
💬 Day 1: Arriving & Getting Settled

- Meet friendly staff who greet you at check‑in
- Get your cabin or room assignment
- Be shown around the camp so you know where everything is
- Meet your group and counselors
- Join a chill welcome activity so you don’t feel awkward
You don’t have to talk if you’re shy — just being there is enough!

You pick what you enjoy. Zero pressure.

We always make sure activities work for all comfort levels — no extreme stuff.
🧠 Identity & Confidence Sessions (Optional!)

If you don’t want to join one — you don’t have to.

Quiet time is respected.

Tell us what you need — we’ve got you.
📱 Phones & Tech
You can bring your phone.
You can use it during free time.
You can’t scroll TikTok during activities (but nice try).
🫶 If You Feel Anxious or Overwhelmed
You’re not alone.
Camp counselors are:
- Kind
- Trained
- Easy to talk to
- Always around
You can talk to them any time — or just sit with them quietly until you feel okay.
🤝 Meeting New People
Most campers arrive without knowing anyone.
You’ll meet people naturally through:
- Games
- Meals
- Workshops
- Cabin groups
By Day 2, you’ll already know names.
By Day 5, you’ll have inside jokes.
By Day 7… well, bring tissues for goodbyes.
🏳️🌈 By the end of the week…
You’ll probably feel:
- More confident
- More connected
- More “you” than ever
- More excited about your identity
- More proud of who you are
You’ll leave with new friends, new memories, and maybe even some new glitter in your bag.
