The Kids in Camp community came together for a memorable evening at Arcadia Earth on April 14, 2026 for the Fireside Gala, celebrating the power of camp and the difference it can make in a child’s life.

The evening brought together 250 camp professionals, supporters, sponsors, and friends for a night of connection, celebration, and shared purpose. It was a wonderful reminder of the strength of our camp community and what we can accomplish when we rally around a cause we believe in.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, the Fireside Gala raised over $34,000 in net proceeds, enough to fund more than 80 weeks of summer camp for children who might not otherwise have the opportunity to attend.

Beyond the funds raised, the evening helped strengthen connections, build awareness of Kids in Camp’s mission, and inspire attendees to become ambassadors for the organization.

A heartfelt thank you to our sponsors, volunteers, partners, and everyone who helped bring the Fireside Gala to life. Together, we are helping more children experience the friendships, confidence, belonging, and lifelong memories that make summer camp so special.
