10 Last Minute “Campy” Halloween Costumes
Halloween is coming up, and there might be a few people out there who are still trying to pull together the perfect costume. Never fear! We are here to give you some “campy” costume ideas. Below are some quick ideas that anyone can pull together in a flash.
-
S’more Costume
How could we not start with this delicious summer camp treat? This is the perfect group costume to get the whole “fam” involved. There is one thing this costume doesn’t have -the messy satisfaction of eating an actual s’more.
-
Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox
This is a nod to our Minnesotan Roots. You could easily pull this off with a flannel and a pair of black pants. Maybe lose the ax so you can carry more Halloween candy.
-
Oscar the Snapping Turtle
Many Camp Lake Hubert girls know about Oscar the Snapping Turtle. He tends to keep to himself, so only a lucky few have actually seen him as he slowly makes his way home. Pay homage to this year-round Hubert resident with your best turtle fit.
We know that the second picture is technically a Ninja Turtle, but she’s too fierce not to post. -
Loon
The soundtrack to every good night’s sleep at camp. You can get as crazy as you want with this costume. Just get a bag of feathers and start gluing away. This costume isn’t complete without loon sounds, so start practicing!
-
“Lucky Me” Runner
With our 110th Anniversary Weekend and “Lucky Me” Run coming up in August, you might as well start training now. Use this costume to run through Halloween and straight to our “Lucky Me” Run registration.
-
“Brownie Coat”
We all know about our good old founder – Brownie Cote. This costume will take some imagination, but at least you’ll have a coat to keep you warm if your Halloween is going to be cold.
-
Cowboy Joe
“He’s the ruffest, toughest man by far. He’s the ragtime Cowboy Joe”. This costume might require someone love for ragtime music. Spend Halloween night swinging back and forth in your saddle as this rootin’ tootin’ cowboy.
-
Fred the Moose
His name was Fred…the Moose. A camp song classic. This costume works best if you “drink your juice in bed”, just don’t spill it all over your hair!
-
Gilly Suit
Remember the feeling right before you play Capture the Flag or Red Nose-Blue Nose? Skip the long pants and closed toe-shoes, and get hardcore with the gilly suit.
-
Andre’s Alligator Friend
“He can be your friend, he can be your friend, he can be YOUR FRIEND TOO.” Be the alligator the whole camp has been singing about. We promise we won’t wear you as a shoe.
