an intro

Camp Idah was born out of a deep desire to create a safe and nurturing environment where adult women can come together, forge lasting friendships, and rediscover themselves. Our journey began with a simple yet profound realization: the importance of community and connection in our lives. We envisioned a space where women could escape the pressures of daily life, reconnect with nature, and find support and camaraderie among like-minded individuals.

Our mission at Camp Idah is to provide a haven where women can feel empowered, inspired, and supported. We believe that by fostering meaningful connections and offering a range of engaging activities, we can help women build resilience, confidence, and a sense of belonging. Our programs are designed to promote personal growth, creativity, and adventure. We are a strong ally of LGBTQIA+ communities and welcome all representations of the female or non-binary spirit.

Kierra Palmer (she/her/hers)

Founder, Camp Director

Kierra’s lifelong fascination with summer camps began in childhood, fueled by dreams of adventure, nature, and close-knit friendships. The opportunity to attend 4-H camp as a young girl left an indelible mark—immersing her in a community that ignited her love for exploration and personal growth.

Years later, Kierra rediscovered this passion at Camp Château, an adult women’s summer camp in southern France. The supportive environment and spirit of camaraderie reignited her enthusiasm and planted the seed for a bold vision: to bring the magic of adult summer camp experiences to the United States.

Inspired and determined, Kierra set out to establish an adult camp in Idaho, drawing strength from her trusted circle of friends and family. Her journey from wide-eyed camper to visionary founder underscores the transformative power of camp experiences and cultivate lifelong connections.
