Details for our event on February 1, 2025
The Venue - Camp Boggy Creek
Founded in 1996 by actor Paul Newman and General Norman Schwarzkopf, Camp Boggy Creek provides FREE life-changing Camp experiences for children with serious medical illnesses and their families. Nestled in the Seminole State forest, our state-of-the-art facility ensures that all of our campers can have the time of their lives while being medically safe.
From the camp: "While at Camp Boggy Creek, TEDxEustis conference attendees will enjoy our amazing Universal Studios Theater. The theater, which Paul Newman personally had a hand in designing, allows our campers to show off their talents, be uplifted, and build confidence and resilience. We welcome you all and we're so glad you'll be able to experience some of the magic that is Camp Boggy Creek."
Camp Boggy Creek is located at 30500 Brantley Branch Road, Eustis, Florida 32736.
Plan to stay all day - 9 am to 3 pm
Please remember that we are programming an entire day conference at a site with restricted access. Because of this, there will be a short window for all guests to arrive and guests are expected to stay with us for the entire day.
There will be discovery sessions throughout the day that you can choose to attend. Those will be presented to you once you purchase your ticket. You will receive an email within a few hours after purchase with a link to the choices for two discovery sessions in both breaks. (There is one that will require an additional payment of $25. It is listed along with the General Admission tickets if you wish to purchase it now.) Note: The Discovery Sessions are shown at the bottom of this page.
There are no discounts on tickets and we recommend you wait for the videos to be published later in the year if you cannot spend the entire day with us.
Ticket sales are final and there are no refunds.
Dress for camp - casual!
Everyone is encouraged to dress casually for the day! There will be activations and some walking, so dressing up is discouraged. Our speakers will be dressed nicely on stage, but even they will change into outdoor casual camp attire for the rest of the activities. Please wear closed toe shoes.
Snacks and lunch
We will have snacks for the breaks and a full lunch for all guests! Camp Boggy Creek has full kitchen and dining facilities right at the camp!
Partners
We can't do this event on ticket sales alone. Partnerships are appreciated! (More info below.)

No video or photography allowed in the theater
During the live performance of our event inside the theater, there is no video or photography allowed by anyone other than our professional crew. This is a non-negotiable rule put in place by TEDx, of which we are an 8 time licensee.
You may take photos with the speakers during breaks, at lunch, or after the event, with their permission.
Should you be observed taking video or photos during our event in the theater, you will be asked to stop and you could be asked to leave without a refund. Thank you for your understanding.
