Dear Friends of Swift Nature Camp,

Camp changes lives! If you were fortunate to go to camp as a child you know this. Now is the time for you to help those who are less fortunate attend camp. Each year, because of donations like yours, children get to attend camp. Yearly the positive response we get is overwhelming. There is no doubt that for these kids camp has had a positive impact on their lives.

The mission of the Mark Lamberson Memorial Campership Fund is to provide kids whose families might not otherwise be able to afford an opportunity to enjoy the camp experience. You know firsthand what a difference camp makes in a young person's life.

The American Camp Association will collect tax-deductible donations from contributors to the Memorial Fund and Swift Nature Camp will match every donation. Our goal each year is to team up with parents to provide no less than 8 children with an opportunity to go to camp this summer. Won't you please consider helping us make this happen? Please give generously by sending a check
