Come join the fun in our faraway kingdom for an upside camp down experience. Special meet and greet guest appearances by Shrek and other characters. During this enchanting camp we will have a special Ogre Craft Station, Shrek cupcake baking, mud pie and slime making in our Viking Kitchen, Puss and Boots sword fighting, look alike contests, Gingerbread Man relays, along with lots of Shrek stories.
