There's a moment every camp family hits sooner or later: you're back home, the trunk is unpacked, and you're surrounded by treasures. Friendship bracelets. First-camp letters. Lanyards. Photos. Name tags. Tiny little pieces of a summer your camper never wants to forget. You know these things matter… but where do they actually live once camp is over?
At Everything Summer Camp, we've spent decades helping families get campers to camp with the right trunk and gear. Now, we're thrilled to introduce you to a new sister brand that focuses on what happens after the adventures: Momento Keepsake Trunks.
Meet Momento: The Keepsake Trunk Brand Made for Your Story
Momento is a new keepsake trunk brand created by the same team behind Everything Summer Camp. If ESC is all about gearing up for camp and the great outdoors, Momento is about what happens when those moments become memories—and how you store them with the care they deserve.
Where our camp trunks are built to survive cabins, buses, and bunk life, Momento keepsake trunks are designed as beautiful, heirloom-quality pieces that live in your home year-round. They're meant for baby keepsakes, wedding mementos, family heirlooms, holiday traditions, and yes—those priceless camp memories that tell the story of who your child is becoming.
Everything Summer Camp helps you create the memories. Momento helps you protect and display them, year after year.

Why We Created a Brand Just for Keepsake Trunks
Whether it's handwritten letters and photos of summer camp, baby outfits and hospital bracelets, or wedding cards and dried bouquet petals, these are not "junk drawer" items. They're pieces of your family's story. And they deserve more than a cardboard box or a plastic tote.
Momento was born from that tension—between what matters and where it ends up. It's a brand built around one simple idea:
Give your memories a home that feels as special as the moments themselves.
Every Momento trunk is handcrafted in Wisconsin, just like our camp trunks. But instead of being designed for camp bunks and bus rides, these keepsake trunks are created to look right at home in your living room, bedroom, office, or nursery.
What Makes Momento Keepsake Trunks Different?
If you're familiar with Everything Summer Camp trunks, you already know we're serious about quality. Momento builds on that foundation and adds a new layer of beauty and emotional focus.
Heirloom-Level Craftsmanship
Momento trunks are designed to be the kind of piece you're proud to pass down. They're built with:
- Durable construction that's made to last through generations.
- Thoughtful finishes and design details that feel timeless—not trendy.
- A look that's warm, inviting, and at home in real-life spaces.
Keepsake Trunks for Life's Big Moments
Instead of starting with size or storage capacity, Momento starts with occasion. You'll find keepsake trunks designed around:
- Baby memories – first blanket, tiny shoes, hospital bracelet, ultrasound prints, and milestone photos.
- Weddings – vows, invitations, dried flowers, cards, and little pieces of the day you said "I do."
- Holidays – ornaments, handwritten recipes, holiday cards, and traditions you revisit every year.
- Legacy & heirlooms – letters, photographs, keepsakes from previous generations, and items that tell your family story.
- Memorial & remembrance – meaningful objects that help you honor and remember a loved one.
And if you're a camp family, you'll see right away how naturally these keepsake trunks can become the home base for all things camp: cabin photos, award ribbons, name tags, bunk notes, and that first camp T-shirt that's way too worn to throw away.
Personalization That Tells Your Story
Just like our camp trunks, Momento keepsake trunks can be personalized—inside and out. You can choose colors and finishes that fit your style, and pick a trunk that feels like a natural extension of your home and your story.
The goal isn't just to "store stuff." It's to create a meaningful ritual around preserving the moments that matter most.
How Momento Connects Back to Everything Summer Camp
Momento isn't a random new brand we stumbled onto. It's very much part of the ESC family.
- Same people, same place. Momento trunks are made by the same Wisconsin manufacturing team behind our C&N camp trunks.
- Same commitment to quality. If you trust us with your camper's trunk, you can trust us with your keepsakes at home.
- Same heart for families. Everything we build is ultimately about helping families enjoy, celebrate, and remember the chapters of their lives.
First, we helped you send your kids off to camp with confidence. Now, Momento is here to help you gather the memories you've made along the way and give them a lasting home.
From Camp Trunk to Keepsake Trunk: A Simple Transition
You might be wondering how Momento fits practically into your family's life if you already own an Everything Summer Camp trunk.
Think of it this way:
- The camp trunk is your launchpad—the gear that travels, takes the bumps, and keeps up with your camper.
- The keepsake trunk is your landing place—the beautiful home where the most meaningful pieces eventually come to rest.
Over the years, you might help your child move favorite items out of the "everyday" trunk and into a Momento keepsake trunk. Bit by bit, you're building a tangible record of their story: camp summers, milestones, and everything in between.
How to Get Started with Momento Keepsake Trunks
Curious about how Momento works in practice? Here's a simple way to start:
- Choose an occasion. Decide whether you're starting a keepsake trunk for baby memories, weddings, holidays, camp, or general family legacy.
- Visit Momento online. Head over to MomentoTrunks.com to explore their collection of keepsake trunks.
- Pick your trunk. Select the size, style, and finish that fits your space and the kind of memories you're preserving.
- Start filling it with meaning. Gather the items you've been "saving for later" and give them a permanent, beautiful home.
You don't have to organize everything in one weekend. In fact, we'd argue it's more meaningful if you build your keepsake trunk over time—adding to it like a living, growing family story.

Camp Today, Keepsakes Tomorrow
At Everything Summer Camp, we've always believed that camp is more than a trip—it's a chapter in your child's story. The inside of a well-used camp trunk proves it: little bits of their personality, courage, friendships, and growth tucked into every corner.
Momento Keepsake Trunks is our way of expanding that belief beyond the bunk and into the rest of your life. It's a brand for the memory-keepers, the photo-savers, the card-keepers, and the "I just can't throw this away yet" parents who know that some things are worth holding onto.
So as you help your camper get ready for their next summer adventure with us, know that there's now a place for everything that comes after—the letters, the photos, the first camp bracelet, and all the moments you never want to lose.
Camp today. Keepsakes tomorrow. And a story that keeps unfolding, one trunk at a time.
Thanks for reading, Everyone! And, as always, Happy Camping!
