Acamps 2026: A 4-Day Adventure of Faith, Friendship & Community
Hearts on Fire. Nothing’s Off Limits.
What if your summer could be more than just another weekend away?
Acamps 2026 is a four-day Catholic festival and glamping experience for young adults, bringing together participants from Boston, New York, Orlando, Toronto, and beyond for an unforgettable weekend of adventure, authentic friendships, worship, and a deeper encounter with Christ.
From August 20–23, we’ll gather at Camp Schodack in Nassau, New York, surrounded by nature and an incredible range of outdoor activities. Your registration includes lodging, meals, sports tournaments, games, music, prayer, Mass, Eucharistic Adoration, inspiring talks, and plenty of time to build meaningful friendships with other young adults seeking to grow in faith.
Whether you’re new to Boston, searching for Christian community, or simply longing to reconnect with God, Acamps is a place where you can step away from your routine, discover authentic relationships, and experience the joy of following Christ alongside hundreds of other young adults.
Transportation from the Boston area will be organized through carpools, making it easy to travel together and begin building community before the event even starts.
Dates: August 20–23, 2026
Location: Camp Schodack, Nassau, NY
Cost: $300 (includes lodging, meals, and all programmed activities; transportation not included)
Come with friends—or come on your own. Either way, you’ll leave as part of a community.
