24 Hours of Winter. Camp-Style.
Winter Blast is Gretna Glen's overnight for kids ages 6 to 12. Twenty-four hours packed with Christmas storytelling, crafts, winter games, cozy meals, and a campfire under the December sky. A chance for kids to experience the Christmas season through the lens of camp: slower, warmer, full of wonder, and built around the story at the heart of it all.
Drop off Friday at 7 PM. Pick up Saturday at 7 PM. Everything in between is planned, supervised, and built for kids to make memories, make friends, and come home with stories.
Rain or shine. Snow or no snow. Winter Blast runs regardless of the weather. Dress warm, bring layers, and get ready for a December weekend your kids will talk about all year.
What to Expect
A camp overnight tuned to December. Christmas-themed from top to bottom, paced so kids can go full-speed when they want and cozy up when they need.
Winter Games
Indoor and outdoor games built for the season. Group favorites, team challenges, and the classic camp energy kids love.
Hands-On Crafts
Christmas and winter crafts kids make themselves and take home. All supplies provided.
Christmas Storytelling
The story of Christmas told around the fire, in the chapel, and in the cabins. Grounded, age-appropriate, unforgettable.
Warm Meals
Friday snack. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner Saturday. Warm, hearty camp food kids actually eat.
Overnight in the Cabins
Supervised cabin sleeping with trained staff. Bring a sleeping bag, pillow, and a stuffed friend if that helps.
