Any new adventure you take on requires courage! Going to camp is no different. For this reason, it’s good to be prepared and have a map ahead of you, so you know what to expect! At SNC we will be your guides providing support and encouragement every step of the way.
We promise that your stay at Swift Nature Camp will be the highlight of your year.
Are you ready to have the time of your life?
Our Special First Timer Camp is the perfect place to start for campers who are new to overnight summer camp. On the other hand, if you can’t wait to jump right into camp and are comfortable leaving home, you might be ready for our 3 week Explorer program or even our Adventure 6 week program; they come complete with overnight camping trips! If this tickles your interest, take our camp tour!
If you are feeling a little less comfortable and would like additional support for your first time at camp, we have a special session for folks just like you. We call it Discovery Camp! It's jam-packed full of excitment but it is also designed to help you become more independent and feel more comfortable being away from home.
At Discovery Camp, we do these simple things to ensure your time at camp will be a success:
|
First Timers Only
Shorter Time Away From Home |
Fewer Campers
Discovery Camp is limited to 50 total children at camp; this small size makes sure that you won’t feel left out. You will be surprised by how quickly you will know everyone at camp! Smaller size also means that only 5 to 7 campers will be staying in your cabin with 2-3 counselors. Your counselors will have more quality time to spend with you, which means additional help when you need it and and even more fun!

Younger Campers With all of these benefits of Discovery Camp you're sure to say goodbye to homesickness and want to return the following summer (97% do). You will call SNC your new summer home! It’ll just be a bit bigger with your best friends sleeping over. |
With all this in mind, we know that Discovery Camp isn’t for everyone. Be sure to see if our 3 & 6 week sessions might be the best choice for you!
