Hey, buddies! We’re back with some exciting news – today is Camp Buddy’s Fourth Anniversary! On this day in 2018, Camp Buddy was launched, and since then has taken off in ways we could never have expected, thanks to all of you, our fans! To celebrate this special day, we have quite a few events in store – check them all out below!

Camp Buddy Lootbox

We have an exciting, new, limited-edition product available for pre-order just in time for our Camp Buddy 4th Anniversary – A Camp Buddy Loot Box! Some fans may remember our collaboration with Yaoi Crate last year and, with its popularity, we decided to make a loot box of our own!

We’ve filled this loot box with exciting items, including an Acyrlic Standee, a Leatherette Notebook, Sticker Sheets, Keychains (including a never-before seen design), and more! You can see all the contents, as well as order yours now at the link below:

Please note that this is a limited-edition product and stock may run out. The product will ship in December, and we expect shipments to take a few weeks due to the Holidays. Thank you for understanding!

Camp Buddy & Scoutmaster Season Art Contest!

Many of our fans will remember that we’ve held two different art contests over the past few years, and we thought now would be the perfect time to hold another one in celebration of Camp Buddy’s anniversary!

This contest will feature the theme: “Life Outside Camp”! Spark your imagination and show us what you think our campers and scoutmasters are doing outside of camp, whether it’s being busy with a job, enjoying a hobby, or hanging out together with friends; this is your chance to create your own story through an illustration for everyone to see!

See below for full details of the contest:
