Magic: The Campening is returning, back by popular demand! Odyssey is teaming up with Gamer’s Haunt for a second year to provide a safe place for kids to build and test their skills, make new friends, and have fun. Magic: The Campening is a camp designed for campers interested in the strategic trading card game Magic: The Gathering. Whether you are new to Magic: The Gathering, or a long-time player, Magic Camp has something for everyone.

Campers will spend each morning at Gamer’s Haunt, then return to Odyssey in the afternoon for swimming and active play.
