Summer Camp Sale

This article is for content released in the update. For the patch itself, see July 1, 2011 Patch.

“

It's summertime and THINGS ARE ON SALE. If only all our writers weren’t at Writer’s Camp they could tell you HOW AWESOME THIS SALE IS. If they wrote something witty about the Scout's new TOWEL you would probably say "I really want to go out right now and buy a towel for MY scout." If they said something sad and revealing about the character of the Scout's new pair of FLIP-FLOPS you would probably say "I care deeply about Flip-Flops, if only I had a pair to show my deep feelings for Flip-Flops!" — TF2 Official Blog

”

The Summer Camp Sale was a seasonal event held by Valve from June 30, 2011 to July 11, 2011. A patch introduced 13 new items, 4 of which were limited to the event's duration.

Trivia

• The Star-Spangled Bomber achievement was removed from the list of July 2 objectives, yet introduced again during the July 6 objectives.
• The TF2 Blog post regarding the Mann Co. Summer Sale first introduced the concept of wearing 2 misc. items at once (before hats and miscs. were merged into Cosmetics). This concept was implemented later in the Manniversary Update & Sale.
