Themed Weekends at CreekRidge Campground

Every weekend of the season at CreekRidge has its own theme, so no two visits are the same. You might spend Saturday afternoon at a foam party by the pool, cheer on a friend in a title contest, and finish the night on the dance floor at Club Solitude. When you want a break from the action, the trails, fishing ponds, and community bonfire are there for the quieter side of camp.

Signature weekends

Themes change from season to season, but these weekends have become CreekRidge favorites:

GLOW, the biggest event in the woods, when the glow field lights up the night.
CreekRidge Pride, a celebration of the chosen family that makes this place what it is.
Foam weekends, including Foam and Fabulous and the Pool-A-Palooza Foam Party.
Holiday weekends for Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, and Labor Day’s Northern Decadence, complete with a parade and the CRC King title.
Title contest weekends, where the community crowns Mr. CRC Cowboy, Mr. CRC Leather, Mr. Otter, Miss CRC, and the winners of the Bear and Cub contest. Learn more on our Title Contests page.
Duck Duck Dazzle, which kicks off the annual 50-50 raffle benefiting OZone in Ypsilanti.
Peaches and Screams, the season finale and the last chance to dance before winter.
