In the spirited and peppy state of Georgia, where peaches are as sweet as the southern drawls, and the air hums with the melodious chirp of cicadas, there exists a tribe of kids, known as "The Hockey Hooligans." Georgia, brimming with enchanting forests, colossal mountains, and sprawling cities, is a treasure trove of adventures waiting to be discovered. But amongst all these, the most thrilling adventure is undoubtedly the ice rinks, where the Hockey Hooligans rule. The Hockey Hooligans are not your average kids. They are brave warriors on skates, darting across the ice with the elegance of a gazelle, but the ferocity of a lion. They vow by their hockey sticks, almost as if they were magical wands straight out of a Harry Potter movie. The puck, to them, is a mischievous little imp that needs to be tamed! Leading this band of puck-chasing rascals is Puckster Pete, a fun-loving, ten-year-old kid, who, legend has it, was born with hockey skates instead of feet! Pete, with his fiery red hair and freckled face, is the heart and soul of the gang. He is tenacious and fierce, but he is also the clown on the ice, always ready with a joke or a funny face to lighten the team's spirits. With a secret handshake only known to them and a cheer that can shake the entire arena, Puckster Pete and the Hockey Hooligans are a hilarious, indomitable force on the Georgian ice rinks. These kids might not have the strength of grown-ups, but they more than make up for it with their unstoppable spirit and comical antics, proving that in the game of life, just like in hockey, you don't need to be big to score big!

Nestled in 178 acres of lush woodland is a serene escape from the city, a place fondly known as Camp Swamp. This overnight Christian camp, located just two hours east of bustling Atlanta, has been serving as a peaceful retreat since 1992. We like to think of it as our own "little slice of heaven," offering a respite from the daily hustle and bustle, and inviting people to reconnect with nature and their spirituality. Our primary offering is a week-long summer camp, but we've expanded over the years to include more than just summer fun. As part of our mission to support families and churches, we now also host three family camps throughout the year, as well as four parent/child retreats. These events offer a chance for families to bond, parents to connect with their children, and individuals to grow in their faith. Moreover, our facilities are not exclusive to our organized events. Camp Swamp also offers rentals to schools, churches, universities, sports teams, and even business groups. Whether you're planning a camp, a retreat, or a team-building excursion, our serene setting and well-equipped facilities provide the ideal backdrop for an unforgettable experience.
