Overnight camp shirts pull double duty in ways that day-camp shirts never have to. Campers wear them on the bus in, in the cabin, in the dining hall, on the lake, and back home as the souvenir that carries the whole session. The right overnight camp shirt program covers cabin tees in matching colors, counselor and CIT polos, color-war jerseys, and a closing-ceremony tee that lands the week. Below is the full lineup, the per-piece pricing, and the design rules that hold up across a full residential camp roster.
What an overnight camp shirt program actually needs
- Cabin tee: one color per cabin so counselors can find their group across the dining hall, the waterfront, and on field trips
- Camper souvenir tee: the year and the camp name big enough to spot in a family photo five years later
- Counselor polo: a step up from the camper tee so staff are visible to parents on drop-off and pickup day
- Color-war or session-end jersey: the tradition piece that campers ask their parents to buy at the closing banquet
- CIT or junior-staff tee: distinct from full counselors so the chain of command reads from twenty feet away

Bear Grips Pro Shops: Custom Apparel for Your Team. No Minimums. Free Shipping.Cabin colors and how to organize them
The standard pattern is one tee color per cabin with the cabin name printed below the camp logo on the front. Twelve cabins is twelve colors. Bear Grips cotton athletic tees come in over twenty colors that print clean with both light and dark logos, so even a sixteen-cabin camp has room.
- Group cabin colors by age unit so the youngest unit can be spotted at a distance (often bright primary colors)
- Reserve dark navy and black for the oldest unit and senior counselors
- Keep heather gray and white as neutrals for staff-only pieces, not cabins
- Use two distinct color-war colors (often blue and white, or green and gold) and never reuse them for cabin assignments
Print layout that works for every piece
- Front chest: camp logo, three to four inches wide
- Front lower: cabin name in block lettering, three inches tall
- Back center: camp name + year, twelve inches wide ("CAMP ROSEWOOD 2026")
- Back bottom (optional): camper first name in script, included at no extra cost since each shirt prints individually
- Sleeve: session number or week if multiple sessions run back to back
What we make and what we do not
We print everything that goes on a camper or counselor body: tees, long sleeves, hoodies, crewnecks, joggers, sweatpants, shorts, leggings, tanks, polos, and hats. We do not produce waterproof rain gear, life vests, branded backpacks, or branded water bottles. For the gear-list items we cannot print, the camp store stocks unbranded versions and customers add the branded apparel on top.

Start FreeFrequently Asked Questions
Do we have to order a minimum quantity?
No. Each piece prints individually, so a single shirt costs the same per piece as 200 shirts. Cabin sizes and counselor counts never have to round up.
Can each camper have her own name on the back of her tee?
Yes, included at no extra cost. Each tee prints individually so each camper can have her first name added on the back.
How fast do overnight camp shirts ship?
About a week US delivery from when the order is placed. Order two to three weeks before opening day to allow buffer for the welcome bag.
Can the camp logo print in different colors on different cabin tees?
Yes. Same logo file prints in different ink colors on different cabin base colors at no extra setup fee.
