Dear
Families,
Swift Nature Camp is a Minnesota Summer
Camp for boys and girls ages 6-15. Our
focus is to blend traditional outdoors
summer camp activities with an
appreciation for nature and the
environment. As Camp Directors, we are
often asked "What are the benefits of a
overnight Minnesota camp experience?" Our
primary answer at Swift is to facilitate a
Fun and Safe Summer. But we know that
there is so much more to summer camp. For
years, parents have found that summer camp
is an amazing opportunity to help their
children mature.

At
Swift Nature Camp our small size allows us
to promote each child's personal
development by providing fun, friendship
and leadership in a supportive and
noncompetitive environment away from home.
While children are home all year long,
that's your time to plant the seeds and
direct the thinking patterns which guide
your child to how they should behave and
socialize. But at summer camp children
will have an opportunity to act on their
own, be self-reliant and try things for
themselves.
|
|
To
put it in one word, Summer at a Minnesota
camp provides independence, and that's a
major part of growing up. When campers
find adult friends called counselors,
who model perseverance, listening,
teamwork and appreciation of differences,
campers set new and high standards for
their own behavior. This in
turn brings their new found
independence more in line with
your at-home
teachings.

New Friends to Make
|
We
see Swift Nature Camp as an opportunity
for each child to come to a new place and
try new things and make new friends.
Minnesota Camps offer a new world. Who you
were before has no bearing on who you want
to be, because camp is a new beginning.
Many of our campers return year after year
saying that "Swift allows me to
be my real self with real people" and
we feel that's a good
thing.

All
this fun happens in thesun of the north
woods at this Minnesota Summer Camp. For
staff and campers alike, Swift Nature Camp
is more than just a place to be, it
is their summer home. So why not join
our Swift family this
