A Legacy of Revitalization
The historic Camp Elsewhere property, once a children’s camp, restaurant, and resort, was renovated and one year later, opened by Eric and Kristen Hoopman on July 1, 2023. The Hoopmans' passion for revitalizing their community inspired them to purchase and renovate historic buildings in and around the Oshkosh area, including Camp Elsewhere, The Gibson Social Club, formerly Gibson Motors, and the Elsewhere Market & Coffee House.
