Connections

Loneliness has become an epidemic within our culture. When surveyed, 71% of Gen Z said they often or sometimes feel lonely. While the younger generation is often digitally connected and surrounded by people, they can struggle with meaningful relational connection. Camp Swamp has always focused on belonging, connection, and community in real life. The safe space at Camp fosters relationships during the camp week and beyond.

Ava McClary, one of our head girl counselors this summer, shared her story with us recently:

“For me, Camp Swamp is a place where I feel most safe to be my truest self. I don’t have to worry about being judged, but I can just let go, have fun and step into who God has made me to be without worrying what anyone thinks. It’s also a place where you can build the deepest friendships in such a short amount of time, that will last a lifetime.”

Our youth need a safe space where they can experience connection and belonging, where they can be known, accepted, and valued. Camp Swamp provides an immersive experience for healthy embodied community based in kingdom values. We encourage you to include a week (or two) of summer camp into the rhythms of your family life, to provide your child or grandchild the opportunity to build their community and their connections in real life.

We have summer camp for 6 weeks this beginning right after Family Camp.
