Fall Camp at SNC!
As the summer of 2020 came to a close, we had many reasons to be grateful here at Swift Nature Camp. We were grateful for the families who sent their children to camp, and the faith they had in us to take care of them in uncertain times. We were grateful that we were able to send every one of the kiddos back home healthy and virus-free. And, of course, we were grateful for the opportunity to open Swift for our first ever Fall Camp!
Getting to spend extra time at camp is always a blessing, but there is something about being here in the fall that makes it so special. A lot of the great parts of summer camp are still present: we do fun activities like boating and arts & crafts, play classic games like capture-the-flag and zookeeper, and make memories with friends old and new. But the changing of the seasons brought new and exciting changes to camp, as well. We have new clubs to choose from every week, like kayaking, reading, ukulele, camp choir and more. Our wonderful camp cook has made more kinds of soup than we can count, as well as all the hot chocolate we'd ever need! We even carved pumpkins and had an all-camp snowball war! Think it was too cold to swim? Think again! We all took part in what I'm certain was the coldest "Polar Bear Swim" this camp has ever seen! But the cherry on top of our Fall Camp sundae? The natural beauty of northern Wisconsin. It's no secret how picturesque this area is in the summer, but living amongst the trees as they change colors and shed their leaves is truly a sight to behold.
Thank you again to all of the families who made fall camp possible. To those families who couldn't make it this fall, we hope you all stayed healthy and enjoyed your fall as much as we did, and we'll see you all next summer!
