Calleva is the largest outdoor education organization in Central Maryland, United States, established to provide outdoor team building opportunities, host summer camps, and take groups of individuals on excursions throughout Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, West Virginia, Delaware, Colorado, and Canada, among other places. It is a 501(c)(3) educational non-profit.

History

Calleva was started by Nick, Alex, and Matt Markoff, whose family was involved in the summer camp business for generations, including close ties to Valley Mill Camp. In the fall of 1993, in order to raise capital, they held the first ever Markoff's Haunted Forest.[1] Camp Calleva began in the summer of 1994.[2] The word Calleva means "where the paths cross".

They offer LIT (Leadership in Training), Cubs (ages 4-5), Explorer (ages 6-8), Adventure (ages 9-14), and High Adventure (ages 15-16) programs during the summer, as well as various other outdoor excursions throughout the year. The Calleva Ski Club was offered during the winter, but stopped in early 2020 due to COVID-19 and resort management changes.

In 1998 the first ever Calleva Challenge was held, a triathlon of sorts on the Potomac River. This was later renamed the Potomac Challenge in 1999.

Locations

Calleva offers programming across five main locations including:
