Swift Nature Camp, a Kids Summer Camp for boys and girls ages 6-15. We blend traditional summer camp activities while increasing a child’s appreciation for nature, science and the environment. Below is what our campers had to say

This is my 6th summer at Swift Nature Camp, and it offers all sorts of opportunities. Also it gives the 16 and 17 year-old CIT’s and JC’s a chance to develope their leadership skills and to figure new things out about themselves. When you are a JC or Cit there are other people your age to where you can learn what they do to bring their cabin together and its a good way to learn other ideas. For the campers though there are a variety of activities that develops different skills. There is boating and swimming which is for teamwork and just swimming. Archery and riflery for control in breathing and pacience. Arts and Crafts for creativity. Team course for teamwork and growth. There are also games at the camp so the campers can run around and just act like kids.

Swift is awesome!!!! Next year will be my 4th summer there. Its always the highlight of my year when I get to go to camp. I environment is very good because you really get to know everyone. You get to no each other really well because of the small camp size. When I first went I was a little worried about it because I didn’t know other people who went to overnight camps, but I must say it was probably the best destination of my life! The greatest thing about it for me is that camp keeps on getting better year after year. I also love it because I have done stuff that other people I know haven’t. It is also awesome because there are people who come to SNC from all over the US and even the world. To me that is amazing because before I went to camp I couldn’t tell people that I know people from Poland, Mexico, Peru, and Columbia. Now I can. The activities and trips at SNC are also really amazing! Before I had never even been camping now I’ve been camping at least 10 times!

I have been going to Swift for 8 summers and I love it there. It is like my home-away-from-home. I have met many great friends whom i still keep in contact with. While at camp you participate in many activities and go on camping trips. These activities give you new skills that are useful and make you a well rounded person.I have had many memories that will last a lifetime. The counselors are responsible people who are fun to be around. I have really enjoyed my time at Swift. I highly recommend Swift Nature Camp.

Swift is the coolest place I have ever been. I have made so many new freinds both living in the USA and in other countries. One of the good things about Swift is the limited number of campers at camp. It helps you get to know everyone. Also the age groups because there are younger kids and older kids and that realy helps getting to know people. The activities are very fun things like archery and rifelry I would have never done if I did not go to camp. Swift is the coolest place I have ever been to.

Parents our responsibility to be sure our children will have a safe, fun and encouraging summer. Also see www.SummerCampAdvice.com for more.
