Welcome to the 18th Century

Step back in time to when our nation was born. Experience what normal life was like for our revolutionary forefathers through hands-on crafts and activities. Learn to be respectable as George Washington. Go backwoods camping like Daniel Boone. History you can see, experience, and hold in your hand.
 
History is alive! And you get to live it.
 
This is Camp Flintlock.

Celebrate America 250 with Our Original Field Trip

Educational Journeys

Featured Activities

As America commemorates its 250th anniversary, there has never been a better time for students to experience the Revolutionary era firsthand. For more than 20 years, Camp Flintlock's flagship Original Field Trip has transformed history from textbook pages into unforgettable, hands-on learning.
 

Whether we bring our authentic 18th-century encampment to your school or welcome you to our campsite in Four Oaks, NC, students will step into colonial America through reproduction tents, the stirring sounds of fife and drum music, and interactive activities that explore the people, skills, and events that shaped our nation's founding.
 

This once-in-a-generation anniversary is the perfect opportunity to help students experience the history behind America's birth—not just learn about it.
