Camp Lucky Star

Lucky Star is a five day women’s art and whole living sleepaway camp set in the hill country of Texas. Women will travel from all over the country to take in the beauty of Camp Waldemar, attend workshops, make new friends, listen and share, eat good food, laugh ’til they cry, sing around the campfire, gaze at the stars, and just be in the moment. For 10 years now, women of all ages have enjoyed this creative experience. We hope this is your year to join in the fun, especially since we will be celebrating our 11th year! We are currently working on our instructor line-up and class offerings, but you can pre-register now to lock in your spot around the campfire.

Who is it for?

You do not have to be an “artist” by the standard definition to come to Lucky Star. You do not even have to consider yourself “creative” to join in the fun. We believe there is “art” in the every day details of life and therefore we celebrate the everyday “artists” who can be found in the kitchen making a lovely meal for their family, in the garden planting a row of seeds, in the wee hours of the night sewing a Halloween costume, or in a gray-on-gray cubicle using a rainbow of colorful file folders and sticky notes to do anything to brighten the day. Just the act of braiding your hair can be deemed a “work of art” by our definition. Actually, by our definition, YOU are the true Work of Art. Creative people can’t help but be creative. You know who you are. Lucky Star is a candy store for the creative soul. Lucky Star is for YOU!

Where will the magic happen?

Lucky Star is taking place in Hunt, Texas at a real-live girl’s summer camp called Waldemar. Established in 1926, Waldemar has stolen many a young girl’s heart. This place has a soul, and when you set foot on the sprawling grounds, you can feel it in your bones. It’s the perfect place for Lucky Star to take root next fall.

Ancient Cypress trees line the banks of the clean, clear water of the Guadalupe River. It runs right through camp at the base of the rugged limestone hills. The sweet smell of Sycamore trees floats on the breeze and the hillside is covered in native stone cabins, each with their own unique charm and story to tell. Fall is the perfect time of year; after the scorching heat of our Texas summers and perhaps just before it’s too cold to take a dip in the river.
