Base Camp Boys

A weekend for fathers to bond with their sons

July 18-20, 2025

Fathering ISN’t Easy

That's why we created Base Camp Boys. So you could connect with your son and be an intentional dad. We began in 2015 with a few dads and sons and have now impacted hundreds of father-son pairs across three states and two continents.

For Dads & 8-11 Year Old SOns

  • Undivided, "screen-less" time that you and your son crave

  • Camping, hiking, and other activities that you'll love to look back on

  • Practical tools to be an intentional dad when you return home

Registration Opens 1/5/25

FAQs

  • Base Camp begins first thing in the morning on Friday July 18th, 45 minutes outside of Fort Collins, Colorado. The specific location will be provided closer to Base Camp. We will be finished by 12 pm on Sunday July 20th. (We will be located about 2 hours from Denver - please plan travel accordingly)

  • In addition to all your personal items. You'll need a 2 person tent, 2 sleeping bags, and 2 sleeping pads - all of which can be rented for $60. You DON'T NEED to bring food, cooking supplies, or propane lanterns

    All meals are provided. All activity materials are provided. All amenities are provided including flush toilets and campfires. This is a car camping experience designed for you to pull up set up a tent nearby and not worry about a thing except purposeful time with your son

  • None! The outdoors are a great setting to be with your kids, but zero outdoor/wilderness experience is required for you to attend. Our guides are experienced and savvy so you don’t have to be. You can also rent outdoor gear from us if needed.

  • We do allow dads to bring two sons to Base Camp - however this is not the ideal scenario as it makes true 1 on 1 time with your kids more difficult. If you'd like to bring two sons to Base Camp, please email jeremy@restorationproject.net

  • We keep the specifics a secret, but Base Camp creates space for you to engage your son through experience, powerful truths to learn, and plenty of free time to make memories. There are no “ra-ra” coming of age ceremonies where your son can’t come to bed until they kill an elk. But we do give you practical ways to engage your child and create spaces for you to affirm who God has made him to be.

  • We’d love to chat more with you if you have any questions. Please email Jeremy at jeremy@restorationproject.net
