CampHacker exists to create great camp communities so that camps are inspired to change the world.

Summer camps provide places for the discovery and discussion that lead the camp community to a sustainable future. Travis and Beth Allison founded CampHacker in order to create great camp communities so that campers will continue to be inspired to change the world. They are committed to throwing all their resources into saving summer camps.

CampHacker offers expertise through their podcast, blogs, and conversation. Through their site, they also sell resources like stickers, camp menus, and marketing calendars. As consultants, they offer leadership training, mastermind groups, and marketing evaluations. They also publish a weekly newsletter which focuses on issues facing summer camp professionals, like inexpensive and effective marketing; building a staff that you know, like, and trust; working with parents; and leadership development for camp directors. They do everything they can to be the best possible resource to the camp community, so that summer camp can remain a priority for every family.

Clients love the CampHacker resources. [Name] explains, “I love the Mastermind Group—a whole lot… I know I will be re-energized and I always leave the call with several action items.” And [name] raves, “Sometimes our pace makes it's hard to think about 12 months out, 24 months out. Travis makes sure we're pushing in the right direction. With how fast digital marketing is changing right now, his guidance is invaluable. I'd sooner reduce my own salary than cut him off.”
