Swift Nature Camp Recognized

America's Best Summer Camps 2023 by Newsweek Magazine

Summer camps are an iconic American tradition. According to the American Camp Association (ACA), approximately 20 million kids go to summer camp each year—and for good reason. Camps can offer children a unique opportunity to explore new interests, make lasting friendships, and gain independence in a fun and supportive environment.

With over 12,000 summer camps across the United States, it can be daunting for parents to search for, vet and select the best camp for their kids. Choosing a summer program requires careful consideration of a camper's interests and personality. By doing your research and asking the right questions, you can find a summer camp that provides a fun, safe and rewarding experience for your child.

To that end, Newsweek the 500 best summer camps in the U.S. "America's Best Summer Camps 2023" recognizes the top summer camps in the United States, categorized by state, based on social media reviews and a comprehensive survey of 15,000 parents. The list is composed of approximately two-thirds non-profit and one-third for-profit camps; 483 have earned ACA accreditation.

Swift Nature Camp is a summer camp located in Wisconsin, USA, that focuses on providing children with opportunities to learn about nature, science, and the environment. It has been recognized as one of the best summer camps in the country by Newsweek magazine.

There are several reasons why Swift Nature Camp may have received this recognition. Firstly, the camp has a strong focus on providing educational and engaging activities for children. Campers are encouraged to explore nature and participate in activities such as hiking, bird watching, and animal tracking. The camp also has a science and nature center where campers can learn about various topics related to the environment.

Secondly, the camp has a strong sense of community and encourages campers to develop social skills and make new friends. The camp is intentionally designed to be a smaller size to encourage a sense of community, and the staff works to create a supportive and inclusive environment.

Finally, the camp has a strong reputation for safety and staff training. Swift Nature Camp has been accredited by the American Camp Association, which means it meets high standards for health, safety, and program quality. The Camp Directors Lonnie & Jeff have been runnng camp for 28 years and insure the staff also undergoes extensive training to to be sure they are equipped to handle a wide range of camper situations.

Overall, Swift Nature Camp's focus on education, community, and safety may have contributed to its recognition as one of the best summer camps in the country by Newsweek magazine. Learn More about their exclusive 1st timer camp

Do you know kids & teens looking for a fantastic, good ol' days, totally hip & fun summer adventure that's reasonably priced?

Delighting both girls and boys, Swift Nature Camp has been a favorite childhood experience for my boys each summer since 2003. I trust the directors, I adore the counselors, I appreciate the outside active fun, and I love the gorgeous setting. And, I love that it's cheaper than my daughter's camp! Swimming, canoeing, fishing, tubing, riflery, archery, crafts, camp fires, camping trips, clowning, & good ol' capture the flag in the woods are some of what my kids love about Swift. The break from school kids, family life, and electronics gives them the awesome experience of pursuing new and different activities with fresh, friendly kids that just want to have fun without the drama. Not once in our 12 sessions did I receive a letter from the boys feeling down at camp. In fact, when they came home, they always said they wanted to stay longer next time. I'd love for you to learn more about this camp in Minong, Wisconsin. It has been a key factor in shaping my kids into the people I love today. Check it out.
