Swift
Nature Camp has an
intimate feeling providing
individual attention to
each camper. Camp
enrollment is limited to
no more than 100 campers
per session. We strive to
select campers from
numerous regions
throughout the country.
This diversity creates a
more interesting learning
environment and guarantees
our campers will make new
friends that they would
not otherwise have the
chance to meet. Most of
our campers do not come
with their friends from
back home and are
searching for new firends.

To
help the kids feel
comfortable at
summer camp and to
help tailor our
programs to the age
and ability of
individual campers,
each cabin becomes
home to children of
the same gender and
age. Click to

"Why a camper Loves
Swift"
This camaraderie
begins the very first
day, as each group
names their cabin and
creates a wooden sign
to hang beside their
door. Cabin groups
participate in morning
activities and take
trips together. This
communal living helps
campers learn to
accept individual
differences while
building a deep sense
of group membership
and developing
life-long friendships.
"Most parents are amazed by how
self-reliant and confident their
children are when they come home,"
says Jeff & Lonnie Lorenz,
Directors, "The team spirit that
pervades camp life helps them become
more sensitive, caring brothers and
sisters and better adjusted once
they're back in school."
