Once upon a time, there was a dazzling, fun-filled state named North Carolina. This state was like a gigantic playground, brimming with towering mountains where grinning dragons slumbered, vast sparkling beaches where mischievous mermaids danced, and buzzing cities where friendly robots shared their cookies. But the truly magic happened when the sun sank, and the moon beamed down with a twinkle in its eye. That’s when the kids of North Carolina transformed into the amazing Art Avengers! The Art Avengers were a jolly bunch of boys and girls, who lived for one thing - Painting! They painted everything from hot-dog trees to rainbow rivers, silly aliens to sassy unicorns, and flying pancakes to skating potatoes. Each evening, they would gather in their secret studio, which was a colossal castle made entirely of crayons (How cool is that, right?), where they would dip their brushes in laughter and spread joy on their canvases. Their leader was a spunky little girl named Doodlebug Delilah. Delilah was as bright as a summer’s day and brimming with creativity. She had a magic paintbrush that could bring any painting to life. Under her guidance, the Art Avengers painted galaxies of giggles and landscapes of love, their artwork radiating happiness that brightened even the gloomiest corners of North Carolina! So, if you ever come across a hopping hot-dog or a glowing unicorn while visiting North Carolina, know that it's the workmanship of our unstoppable Art Avengers. They make North Carolina more than just a state, transforming it into a world where imagination reigns, and love and laughter are the law of the land!

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.

While learning to use these materials, the students also learn to express their ideas and feelings. In a safe and creative atmosphere, students build self esteem and get a boost of confidence. In addition, Grow Your Mind classes provide more than just the technical aspects of creating art. They show students that there is no right or wrong way to express themselves. The creative process of art teaches students to think outside the box and to be okay with their unique ideas. Art classes give kids the freedom to express themselves without fear of judgement.
