Adventure Weekend Campout at RiverFest

A gentle weekend campout for Black women to rest, reconnect, and experience joy in community and nature.
About this Event

A joy‑forward, choose‑your‑own‑adventure weekend for anyone craving fresh air, laughter, and a little (or a lot) of thrill. We’re setting up our Camping Noire homebase at RiverFest at Whitewater Challengers — a lively outdoor festival with music, food, vendors, and the option to go whitewater rafting on the Lehigh River.

Whether you’re here for the rafting, the camp vibes, or simply the community, this weekend is built for ease, connection, and adventure at your own pace.

We’re bringing everything you expect from a Camping Noire weekend — curated meals, soft mornings, communal joy, and space to breathe — with the added bonus of festival energy flowing around us. Dip into it when you want. Retreat to the trees when you don’t.

Your weekend. Your rhythm.

🌿 What’s Included

• All Camping Noire meals (Fri dinner, Sat breakfast + dinner, Sun continental breakfast)
• Light refreshments + wine
• Camping Noire community space + ease-centered flow
• Festival admission for the entire weekend
• Access to RiverFest entertainment (music, vendors, food trucks, beer gardens)

🚣🏾‍♀️ Optional Add‑On: Whitewater Rafting

If you want a little thrill, add a guided whitewater rafting trip during a dam‑release weekend.
If not, the joy is still abundant.

🎶 The Vibe
