No matter what skill level or interests your children have, Swift Nature Camp has activities that allows them to excel and enjoy. All activities are promoted in a nurturing, noncompetitive atmosphere, giving each camper the opportunity to participate and have fun, rather than worry about results. Campers also can participate in out-of-camp trips, such as biking, canoeing, backpacking and horse trips. This is the ultimate test of a camper's skill and knowledge. It's a reward to discover new worlds and be comfortable in them, whether the trip takes them down the Nemakagon River, a National Park Service Scenic River, or along the 1500 acre county forest contiguous to camp.   SNC Campers love to play with Legos Camp Activities Include: .Swimming (Red Cross ranks and life saving) .

Through group living, each camper learns to share and live cooperatively and to understand each other even if bunkmates or counselors are from another part of the world. Each morning after breakfast and daily cabin cleanup, campers share two activity periods with their cabin mates. These sessions are programmed activities with an emphasis on learning a particular skill (Swimming, archery, arts and crafts, sailing, etc. ). These group sessions give campers the chance to participate in activities they might not have chosen. After two days focusing on an activity, the cabin is off to try another challenge. Afternoon activities are chosen daily by the child. Campers select the activity they wish to participate in that afternoon. This allows friends and relatives to sign up together and share the same endeavor. Swift Nature Camp's broad array of activities allows each and every child to shine. A camper can choose from water or land sports, arts and crafts, archery, riflery, visiting the Nature Center, going on a field trip with the DNR, or just enjoying a little fishing! Following the afternoon sessions, campers have free time to feed the animals at the Nature Center, finish an arts and crafts project, go swimming, or take a little nap. In the evening, all ages come together for camp wide activities, such as games, singing or camp fires. Hone Next Order DVD
