The Golden State, California, is this ginormous, sun-soaked playground where the mountains give a high five to the sky, and the beaches are so expansive, even the most mischievous sand crabs can't find the end. The palm trees sway like giggly giants playing a game of hide and seek with the sun, and the waves are like the ocean's personal rollercoasters, always ready for another wild ride. In the heart of this giant, playful land, you'll find the bravest, the coolest, and the most daring gang of children in the whole wide world - The California Water Warriors! These kids are not just from California, they ARE California. They're bold like the mountains, carefree like the wind, and just like the Pacific Ocean that hugs the state, they're full of fun, frolic and quite a bit of mystery. Among them is their fearless leader, Captain Splash. Now, the Captain isn't the usual superhero you hear about. He doesn't fly or have laser eyes, but he can make a cannonball splash so big, it could reach the moon! Captain Splash, with his trusty sidekick, Mr. Rubber Ducky, leads the Water Warriors on epic adventures every day. They ride the waves with the dolphins, explore shipwrecks, and sometimes, they even challenge the whales to a friendly race. However, the California Water Warriors' favorite pastime is creating the most gigantic and mesmerizing sandcastles in the world. Rumor has it, they once built a castle so high, a cloud got stuck on its tower! So, if you ever find yourself in California and you hear a loud SPLASH, be sure to join Captain Splash and his Water Warriors for an unforgettable aquatic adventure!

Dear Families, (currently our website is under construction) Welcome to the wonderful world of Swift Nature Camp an overnight camp for boys and girls ages 6-15 located in the beautiful Northwoods of Wisconsin. I’m Lonnie, the Camp Director, and I’m thrilled to share what makes SNC such a special place for kids and families alike. For nearly 30 years, our mission has been to create an environment where children can grow, discover, and make lifelong memories. Here at camp, we focus on friendship, personal development, and a deep connection to nature—all in a fun, supportive, and adventurous setting. All this without cell phones One of the things that sets Swift Nature Camp apart is our focus on fostering independence and confidence. Whether it’s trying a new activity like canoeing, taking on a leadership role in a group project, or simply navigating life away from home, camp provides endless opportunities for personal growth. We celebrate each camper’s unique personality and encourage them to step outside their comfort zone in a safe and nurturing way. Seeing kids gain new skills and pride in their accomplishments is one of the most rewarding parts of what we do. For our youngest campers, Discovery Camp is an especially magical experience. Designed only for first-time campers ages 6-12, this shorter program gives kids a chance to experience the joys of camp life in a way that’s just right for them. It’s amazing to watch these kids try new things—from learning about the natural world to singing campfire songs—and leave camp with big smiles and even bigger stories to tell. Discovery Camp is often the beginning of a long and cherished relationship with SNC, and we’re so proud to see those first-time campers grow into confident and capable young people. Another cornerstone of Swift Nature Camp is our connection to the environment. We believe that nature isn’t just a backdrop for camp; it’s a teacher, a playground, and a source of endless wonder. Through hands-on activities like pond studies, wildlife observation, and outdoor adventures, campers develop an appreciation for the natural world that stays with them long after camp ends. The Camp Zoo is always a favorite, campers can even adopt a pet while at camp.Our goal is to inspire kids to become curious, mindful stewards of the environment. At Swift Nature Camp, there’s never a dull day! With hundreds of land and water activities, campers are always engaged and excited. On land, some favorites include the Lego Cabin, Arts & Crafts, Archery, and exploring the Nature Center. On the water, campers learn Canoeing, Fishing, and Swimming, but the absolute favorites are Tubing behind the boat and jumping off the Water Trampoline. Never is there a dull day because every day is packed with fun, adventure, and opportunities to try something new. Of course, none of this would be possible without the amazing friendships that form here. SNC is a place where kids truly feel like they belong. Campers and counselors alike bring warmth, kindness, and enthusiasm to everything we do, creating a strong sense of community. Whether it’s cheering each other on during a game, collaborating on a creative project, or sharing laughs around the campfire, the bonds formed at Swift Nature Camp are something truly special. Thank you for entrusting us with your children. It’s an honor to be part of their journey and to help create memories that will last a lifetime. If you have any questions or just want to chat about camp, don’t hesitate to reach out. I can’t wait to see what the next camp season holds and to welcome your family to another amazing summer at Swift Nature Camp.
