Melanated Campout 2026 · Homecoming

Not just camping.
This is a whole reunion.

A Black adult camping experience in Georgia — September 25–27, 2026 at Lake Blackshear in Cordele. Once every four years, we all come home. This is that year.

A Message from Your Host

We created this because we needed a place to just exhale.
Not a conference. Not a retreat with rules.

A space where we could dance, rest, laugh, and be our full selves — outside.

If life’s been heavy or fast, this weekend might be exactly what your spirit’s been asking for.

– Jocelyn, Co-host of Melanated Campout
