Meet the Founder
Eva Payne, a devoted mother of six, embarked on her remarkable journey at the age of 21 when she founded a nonprofit summer camp. For over two decades, she and her dedicated team of volunteers provided cost-free summer camps for thousands of children and teens impacted by HIV and AIDS. As the number of children born HIV+ declined, Eva's innate ability to create safe, loving spaces evolved.
In January 2022, Eva channeled her knowledge and passion into Flow Life Retreats, hosting retreats for adults seeking healing, clarity, expansion, and community. After nearly 50 retreats and two transformative years, the vision for Camp Flow Life emerged.
Eva observed a recurring theme at her retreats: adults crave play, community, and the opportunity to explore new experiences. Guided by her motto, "See a need and fill it," Eva envisioned an adult summer camp combining the best elements of her summer camps and adult healing retreats. During a sound bath, the concept crystallized, and 2024 will mark the inaugural year of Camp Flow Life. You are invited to be a part of this journey and Flow Life family.
Meet The Camp Director
Erin FitzGerald, a proud mom and Iowa native, brings a wealth of experience in all things summer camp. From the age of 10 to 18, Erin attended Eva's nonprofit summer camp, fostering a lifelong love for creating nurturing and loving spaces. As an adult, she has taken on various roles at summer camps, from camp counselor to camp director—Erin truly knows camp inside and out!
In 2024, Erin attended the Flow Life Retreat as a participant. This transformative experience, combined with her extensive camp background, inspired her and Eva to envision something entirely new. Together, they are excited to co-create a unique camp for adults, where reconnecting with playfulness, community, and friendship is at the heart of the experience.
Erin is thrilled to help bring this vision to life and create a space where adults can rediscover the joy and connection that camp offers.

Are you ready to reconnect with the playfulness of your youth? It's never too late to join a community of wonderful, kind, and loving individuals seeking growth and connection in a safe, nurturing environment. At Camp Flow Life, you'll have the opportunity to laugh, sing, dance, climb, fish, meditate, and create, all while rediscovering the joy of being alive.
For those interested, you can explore a low dose of psilocybin in a secure and supportive setting, connecting with like-minded individuals eager to redefine adulthood. As we grow older, life often becomes more serious, and we forget how to have fun, make new friends, and build community. Together, we'll explore a new way to embrace adulthood with joy and openness.
Applications are open until we are sold out. There is a $200 deposit before 1/1/2025 and $350 after. The remaining payment is due one month before camp. Spots are limited, so don’t miss out! The cost is $950 early bird and $1250 after Jan 1, 2025.
Campers will stay in cabins separated by gender, just like a classic summer camp (this includes couples). Participants must be 21 or older to attend, and this is an alcohol-free event. Our campers are kind, loving, and ready to tap into their inner child.
Join us at Camp Flow Life and transform your perspective on adulthood. We can't wait to welcome you!
