About Us
Camp daddies
The all-volunteer, unpaid Camp daddies organize and run the event as a labor of love. Their trailers and tents are at the front of the Pridefloat campground. You're always welcome to visit with us, and we have some tools, first aid supplies, and so on available if you need them, or if you would like more information about the local area. The camp daddies are Greg, Daniel, John, Kenton, Owen, and Ron. We also have a camp photographer, Scott.
What is Pridefloat?
Pridefloat is located near Lebanon Missouri and is held on the SECOND WEEKEND AFTER MEMORIAL DAY EVERY YEAR. Pridefloat is up to five days and four nights of camping, with everyone bringing their own camping equipment and food. Please note that while tents, small pop-ups, or R.V's are all welcome, running water and electric hook ups do not exist in the area where we camp. You will receive a free T-Shirt (different each year), a free wristband, a FREE Beer Bust Saturday evening, and floating down the river on Sunday in your choice of canoe, raft, or kayak for the low price of $65.00 per person! DO NOT NOT - REPEAT-DO NOT ARRIVE BEFORE 1:00 PM ON MONDAY!! If you arrive before camping Thursday, you will be charged an additional fee based on per person per night for camping. These fees will be collected by the Campground owners upon arrival when you stop to register your vehicle at their General Store. Your $65.00 entry fee reserves you a Sunday float, not a Saturday one.
EVERY PERSON THAT CAMPS WITH US PAYS THE $65.00 FLAT FEE.
THERE ARE NO DISCOUNTS FOR LATE ARRIVALS OR NOT WANTING TO FLOAT WITH US.
We operate on a reservation system ONLY. Registration for Pridefloat will close 3 weeks prior to the event every year. That means your entry form must be POSTMARKED 2-3 weeks prior. Late entries will be returned to the sender and not accepted. We no longer have to limit our event to 450 people.
​
Saturday we can go to the River at 1:00 pm (after the outfitter has put its canoes on the river).
The free Beer Bust and DJ start at 5:00 pm.

Sunday at 9:30 am busses will roll in to take everyone on the float trip. The total float is 14 miles WEAR YOUR WRISTBAND.
