Last June, my partner and I were invited to a Bat Mitzvah at a sleepaway camp nestled in the Poconos. For two unforgettable days, we experienced the nostalgia of camp life—eating cafeteria food, sipping bug juice, and crashing in sleeping bags on tiny cots in same-gender cabins with folks we hardly knew. And you know what? It was absolutely incredible! Sure, getting ready for the big dance party meant sharing a cramped bathroom with ten other girls, all vying for a glimpse in the one tiny mirror. But there were s’mores! And Coronas! Plus, we had an epic tug-of-war competition! I even donned face paint and a blue tutu all weekend long—because, let’s be honest, we’ve got spirit, yes we do!
Okay, maybe I got a bit too enthusiastic. This summer marks the fifth time that one or both of my children will be off at sleepaway camp, and I can’t help but feel a twinge of envy as I watch that bus roll away from the drop-off zone. But I’m clearly not alone in my longing for camp days—there’s a company called Camp No Counselors that specializes in crafting activity-packed weekends, complete with boozy fun, just for us adults.
Founded by Jake Thompson in 2013, Camp No Counselors was born from his desire to recreate that carefree camp experience. “As adults, we often find ourselves in situations where we feel we need to be confident,” Jake explains on the CNC website. “Camp offers a rare opportunity to be genuinely vulnerable. I saw a successful group of individuals transform back into their authentic selves, and I knew more people needed to feel that magic.”

On the final night, there’s a camp-wide talent show where it’s common for campers to get up and showcase their talents in front of a room full of new friends. And let’s not forget about the open bar all weekend long—yes, even Bloody Marys at breakfast!—for those who might need a little liquid courage to take the stage.
