For those who want to take their love of pizza to the next level, the Minneapolis Pizza Club and the Grown-Up Club have joined forces to create an overnight excursion called '[Pizza Camp](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pizza-hut-6).' Billed as an "[overnight camp for pizza loving adults](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/summer-camp-for-dogs)," the weekend getaway provides the ultimate adventure for those who can't get enough of the cheesy dish.

Pizza Camp is a weekend excursion that takes place in the woods of Maple Plain, Minnesota at the Baker Near-Wilderness Settlement. From the moment the campers arrive, they will be able to enjoy a variety of pizza-themed activities such as cooking homemade pizzas in a woodfire oven and listening to pizza cover songs. Campers will also receive plenty of pizza swag, including T-shirts, tote bags and even beer koozies. Of course, the main draw of the camp is eating delicious slices with other pizza-obsessed campers.
