Dear
Families,
Swift Nature Camp is a
Children's Summer Camp
for boys and girls ages
6-15. Our focus is to
blend traditional summer
camp activities while
increasing a child's
appreciation for nature,
science and the
environment. Yet, Summer
Camp is much more. Swift
is a child centered
program away from
technology, celebrity
culture and academic
pressures. Through fun
activities and positive
staff role models, we
help children develop
life long skills such as
confidence, teamwork,
leadership, compassion
and communication. We
are very intentional
about everything we do
at Swift Nature Camp.

At
Swift Nature Camp our
small size allows us
to promote each
child's personal
development by
providing fun,
friendship and
leadership in a
supportive and
noncompetitive
environment away from
home. While children
are home all year
long, that's your time
to plant the seeds and
direct the thinking
patterns which guide
your child to how they
should behave and
socialize. But at
summer camp in Il.
children will have an
opportunity to act on
their own, be
self-reliant and try
things for themselves.
We
see Swift
Nature Camp as
an opportunity
for each child
to come to a
new place and
try new things
and make new
friends.
Illinois Camps
offer a new
world. Who you
were before
has no bearing
on who you
want to be,
because camp
is a new
beginning.
Many of our
campers return
year after
year saying
that "Swift
allows me
to be my
real self with
real people"
and we
feel that's
a good thing.
To
put it in one
word, Summer
at a Illinois
camp provides
independence,
and that's a
major part of
growing up.
When campers
find adult
friends called
counselors,
who model
perseverance,
listening,
teamwork and
appreciation
of
differences,
campers set
new and high
standards for
their own
behavior.
This in
turn brings
their new
found
independence
more in
line with
your at-home
teachings.
All
this fun
happens in the
sun of the
north woods.
For staff and
campers alike,
Swift Nature
Camp is more
than just a
place to be,
it
is their
summer home.
So why not
join our Swift
family this
summer!
