In the whimsical, winding state of Massachusetts, there lies a mighty legion of math maestros, known as the Master Number Ninjas. And, oh boy, do these kids love their numbers! They crunch them for breakfast, lunch, and even as a mid-afternoon snack. In between the historical, red-brick buildings of Boston, the sandy beaches of Cape Cod, and the majestic Berkshire Mountains, these math prodigies are stealthily working on their flurry of figures. Leading the pack is their fearless champion, Sir Sum-a-lot, a funky yet wise wizard who wields a magical abacus. He is the ultimate mathematician, calculator, and part-time cookie biscuit baker! Sir Sum-a-lot has one rule, "We don't fear big numbers, we tame them!” Oh, and he also has a soft spot for jellybeans, preferably the ones divisible by two! The kids in Massachusetts, or as Sir Sum-a-lot likes to call them, the "Master-usetts", love exploring the world of numbers. They know their times tables like they know the lyrics to their favorite pop songs. They can solve equations faster than a hungry seagull swooping for a discarded hot dog on Revere Beach. And when it comes to fractions, they can split a pizza into equal parts faster than you can say, "Pepperoni, please!" These Master-usetts are not just normal kids, they are math warriors, ready to battle any number that dares to cross their path. So next time you're in Massachusetts, listen closely. You might just hear the faint sound of their rallying cry, "E=MC Squared!", as they march into another exciting mathematical adventure.

Dear Families, 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.

This transaction was an extremely lucky turn of events for the organization. Camp Kiwanee's Needles Lodge has been on the National Register of Historic Properties since February of 2005. It's the very first Hanson property to be included in the register, and for good reason: this much-loved building and its surrounding area are truly a gem. Originally owned by Albert Burrage, a lawyer and businessman from Boston, the land was purchased in 1899. He and his family spent their summers there until a fire destroyed the house and its contents in 1907. Burrage rebuilt the house and added a stone firehouse and cottage, all finished by 1908. In 1922, he sold the property to Camp Fire Girls on a whim, thinking Hanson was taxing him too heavily. This fortunate decision has made a great difference to the organization.
