KIDVENTURE ECHO 2024
Nine days can change your perspective, change your attitude, and change your life forever. For hundreds of teens, Echo has been life-changing. With a focus on outdoor high adventure, teamwork, and community service, Echo offers an experience that your teen will remember forever. Our unique camp provides unlimited opportunities for teens to learn, grow and be a part of a 30-year tradition of excellence and experience.
2024 ECHO INFORMATION
What happens when you take a camp of teenagers to the wilds of Central Texas, surround them with limitless adventure, the opportunity to do courageous things, and give them a chance to make a difference in the lives of others? What happens is truly amazing.
Located near Rocksprings, Texas at Camp Eagle, Echo provides teens ages 13-16 a chance to realize that life is limitless and the opportunity to impact it can be even more.
Echo Campers will be divided into two camps:
1. Donoma: Boys and Girls Ages 13-14
2. Miakoda: Boys and Girls Ages 15-16
Each ‘Camp’ will participate in its own adventures and activities during the day with its select camp staff. This will allow us to better facilitate a more defined and purposeful program by age. In the evening both camps will come together for new special events and parties. In addition, both camps will eat all their meals together. When registering for Echo this Fall, please select your Echo age group as well as gender. Please select the age your child will be during camp.
| Session | Date | Ages | Tuition |
|---|---|---|---|
| Echo | July 13-21, 2024 | 13-16 yrs. | $2190 |
LODGING AND MEALS
Although we may get muddy and be rustic during the day, nothing feels better than a warm, clean bed at night. Our boy’s and girls’ cabins are comfortable and modern. Meals are prepared family-style at “Mi Casa”, our home away from home. They are healthy, plentiful, and taste amazing!

5 REASONS KIDVENTURE IS ‘SO MUCH MORE’
We believe camp isn’t just an opportunity to have fun, but a chance to grow strong in knowing you can do anything, be anything, and do so with great character. We have always believed that our ultimate goal is to help raise great kids. We simply choose to do it through the magic of camp
There is nothing more important than the quality, experience, and motivation of your kid’s camp counselor. It is the single most important reason your child will experience camp to its fullest potential. We pride ourselves on providing the best camp camp staff anywhere. And here’s a few reasons:
- All adult team. Most are Certified Teachers and Education Majors
- Must have a driving desire to make a difference in the world
- All possess a fanatical amount of spirit & energy
- All CPR/First Aid certification for Infant, Child, and Adult
- All complete state-approved Sexual Abuse Prevention course
- Every team member goes through annual criminal background and sex offender registry checks. Yearly.
We only take 25 girls and 25 boys each session. This means the quality of their experience is greater because they receive lots of attention. The more counselors with your child the more rewarding and safer your camp experience. Our ratio is 1:10
With over 26 years of summer camp experience, 30 campsites statewide, and thousands of kids and families having attended our camps, we’ve learned a thing or two about camp. And the most important thing we’ve learned, is you never stop improving what you are doing.
Our goal is to serve your entire family. We believe the best opportunity to help raise happy, and healthy kids, is to do it together.
