Camp Bestmates

A long-weekend at summer camp, led by Camp Counselors Omar and Kass, to bring out our inner child, maximize queer joy and build community.

Those memories of summer camp with crazy games and competition were peak moments in our childhood. We’ve been chasing that feeling ever since and what better way to recreate that than at an adults-only, all-inclusive in Mexico! This isn’t a retreat. It’s not a wellness conference. It’s not a green juice cleanse in the jungle. It’s grown-ass, adults only, weekend-long summer camp!

Camp Counselors

Omar (he/him) — A fiery Aries who loves to gather community. Jokester, lover and softy at heart, he loves to dance and vibe and while not wrangling campers, he can be found recharging in the sun with a drink in his hand.

Kass (she/her/they/them) — A sexy Gemini, also known as Tequila Tio. Jams to reggaeton and screamo-emo, loves to bake in the sun, is known to be the LIFE of the party, and can be found shaking that groove thing, on any dance floor.
