UNFORGETTABLE CAMP EXPERIENCE
For thousands of kids, Safari Overnight Camp has been that unforgettable adventure away from all the distractions of life. Guided by our amazing camp team, campers explore their world, scale to new heights, paddle, swim, hike, and create some of the most memorable friendships in their lives. What’s more, camp happens with smaller ratios and with fewer campers. This way, your camper gets tons of attention, creates more meaningful relationships, and experiences a safer camp environment. We invite you to be a part of Safari 2023 and share that unforgettable adventure with us.

LIKE NO OTHER PLACE…
For 28 years, Mo-Ranch has been our home for Safari Overnight Camp. It is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful locations for our Texas overnight camp. Our dorms lie on the banks of the North Fork of the Guadalupe. From there, our adventures take us among the river, the forests, and everywhere in between.
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 28 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.
