Camp Fury: May 30–June 3, 2023

Camp Fury is a high adventure immersion experience in the life of elite women of the fire and police services.

About the Trip

Gear up and work alongside the elite women of Southern Arizona’s fire and police services. You’ll rappel over the edge of a six-story building, climb a 110-foot ladder truck, investigate crime scenes, and ride along with driving instructors in a high-speed obstacle course! You’ll sleep in the bunkhouse at our day camp each evening and get plenty of fun in too!

You’ll start each day early with physical training. After breaking up into girl-led squads, you’ll take on the day’s activities, which will include hands-on learning stations that are a blend of both fire and law enforcement skills. These stations include the activities listed above, plus lifesaving compression-only CPR (a technique developed at the University of Arizona) and more. Your evenings will be spent on fun leadership skill-building and bonding activities with your squad. Learn the stories of real women breaking the glass ceiling in these male-dominated professions. Your training leaders will be your friends and mentors for life.
