Finding the right summer camp is never easy. Yet, if you have an child who is an animal lover it can be extremely difficult. Sure, there are plenty of residential summer camps that have fun things like swimming sailing and archery, yet, finding one for your animal loving chils is not so easy. At Swift Nature Camp we blend an animal petting zoo with over 40 summer camp activities.

This sleep away Summer Camp gives children the opportunity to learn about pet care and behavior while providing field trips or guest speakers that focus on all types of animals, including farm animals and wildlife.

Illinois Campers and parents, often tell us "I never knew you existed- You are the perfect summer camp for my child". At SNC we have been giving kids an amazing Animal Summer Camp for over 25 years. Our goal is to have children learn about nature and animal care at the camps petting zoo while becoming more independent all in a fun environment.  If you are looking for a Animal Camp or maybe a Science Camp in Il., we are the place.

 

 

Our campers tend not to be sports motivated but tend to be kids that play for fun and enjoy being outside, chasing frogs, learning about native mammals or having a nature scavenger hunt. Animals are just one of the many reasons why campers love Swift Nature Camp.  Each summer children enjoy adopting a pet and taking care of it. We teach pets are not all fun and games, campers need to be responsible to feed, water and play with pets before any of their own play time. Responsibility comes first. If your child has their own animal they can bring it to the Nature Center to live at camp.  SNC e are one of the few camps that allows children to bring their animals with them to summer camp. That's what makes us a Animal Camp full of pet lovers.

Because we are small and not one of the Mega Summer Camps in Illinois we can give individual attention to every child. Our 1st Timer Camp gives Science Camps 510special attention that makes parent and campers happy alike...Maybe that's why 100% of our kids want to return each summer.We have found that when parents and campers find a kind summer camp that promotes positive values and makes their kid feel valued it makes everyone happy and campers want to return year after year. But it is more than just an active Nature Center, Pet Zoo, and Department of Natural Resources sponsored programs that keep bringing campers back to Swift Nature Camp it is our special recreational activities that include canoe and backpack trips, horseback riding, swimming, arts & crafts, team courses, archery, sailing, water skiing, tubing and sports, over 22 different land and water activities. Despite all this, it is friendships that bring campers back.

 Parent and Campers alike feel comfortable knowing that in Illinois the motor coach will pick up their campers and bring them to camp to start their overnight adventure at this animal camp.  read more about this Overnight Illinois Animal Camp, read more about how we encourage children to be more responsible and to be accountable for themselves as well as being kinder.
