What to Bring to the Virtual Campfire

You don’t need to pack a trunk for this night—but you will want to come prepared!

  • Camp swag (longs and longs encouraged!)

  • Snacks (microwave s’mores count!)

  • A camp blanket or sleeping bag

  • Your campfire spirit

Feel free to dress up your background, bring your bunkmate, or even invite your grandma. Everyone’s welcome around this fire.

Why Host a Virtual Campfire?

Because camp isn’t a place—it’s a feeling. And when we can’t be physically together, we make magic happen anyway.

Our virtual campfire creates space to:

  • Reignite that camp joy from home

  • Stay connected to friends and staff

  • Feel seen, valued, and part of something bigger

It’s easy to feel disconnected these days, but not on March 21st. This night is proof that the Camp W*K community is strong—online and offline.

What Makes a Virtual Campfire So Special?

You might be wondering, can a virtual campfire really capture the same spirit as sitting around a real one?

Absolutely. Here’s why:

Everyone Has a Front Row Seat

From your screen, you’ll catch every smile, hear every song, and feel fully part of the group—no craning your neck or shifting on a log.

Camp Without Borders

Whether you’re five minutes or five time zones away from camp, distance disappears. We’ve had campers join from across the country (and even across oceans!).

Total Creative Freedom

Want to wear your W*K gear or go full costume? Add a funky Zoom background? Invite your dog? The virtual campfire is your canvas—go wild!

Sound On = Instant Nostalgia

The moment those first chords hit, it’s like you’re back at Camp W*K. Music carries memory, and we’re bringing all your favorite campfire songs to life.

Same Spirit, Different Fire

While the logs might be digital, the energy is real. You’ll laugh, sing, maybe even cry a little—and come away feeling reconnected to something that matters.

Who Can Join?

Everyone’s invited to this virtual campfire:

  • Campers of all ages

  • Parents and siblings

  • Camp alumni and friends

  • Future campers and curious newcomers

Whether you’re new to Camp W*K or have a trunk full of camp shirts, this evening is made for you.

Stay in Touch After the Fire Burns Down

Don’t let the connection end when the last song plays. Join our community beyond the campfire:

  • Sign up for Camp W*K Updates

  • Tag your campfire selfies using #CampWKCampfire

  • Connect with new and old friends online

We’re always planning new ways to connect, and we’d love to keep you in the loop.

Let’s Make New Campfire Memories Together

This isn’t just a screen and some songs. It’s a warm hug from camp. It’s the sound of your friends’ laughter. It’s the song that brings back a thousand memories. And it’s your chance to be part of it—again or for the first time.

The Camp W*K virtual campfire is your place to feel connected, loved, and completely yourself. So grab your device, get comfy, and join us for a magical evening you’ll never forget.

We’ll see you around the (virtual) fire 🔥
