Swift Nature Camp
Wisconsin Summer Camp 2026

Dear Families,

Swift Nature Camp is a Wisconsin summer camp for boys and girls ages 6–17, combining classic overnight camp adventures with hands-on experiences in nature. Campers swim, canoe, craft, explore the Nature Center, and care for animals in the Camp Zoo — all while building confidence, independence, and lifelong friendships.

A Child Centerd, Technology-Free Expirience-At Swift, children unplug from screens, social media, and school pressures, immersing themselves in a supportive, child-centered environment. Guided by caring counselors and role models, campers develop essential life skills including leadership, teamwork, communication, compassion, and resilience — all through fun, engaging activities.

First Timer Camp- For younger campers or those new to overnight camp, our First-Timer Camp provides a smaller group experience with extra guidance and support. This introduction allows children to adjust at their own pace, make friends easily, and gain confidence in a safe, nurturing setting. By starting with a smaller group, first-time campers feel comfortable exploring new activities and discovering the joys of camp life.

Small Camp Big Impact- With intentionally small enrollment, every camper is seen, supported, and encouraged. Swift’s noncompetitive environment allows children to try new activities, take healthy risks, and develop independence and self-reliance. These experiences build confidence, social skills, and self-esteem that last long after camp ends.

Growth, Confidence & Character- Swift Nature Camp emphasizes personal growth. Our staff model perseverance, teamwork, and respect for differences, helping campers set and achieve high standards for themselves. Children gain confidence and independence while reinforcing the values learned at home.

A Place To Belong- Campers return year after year, often saying, “Swift lets me be my real self with real people.” Camp provides a fresh start each summer — a chance to explore, try new things, and form meaningful friendships.

Your Summer Home-All of this happens under the sunny skies of Northern Wisconsin. For campers and staff alike, Swift Nature Camp is more than a summer experience — it’s a home for adventure, growth, and fun.

Join the Swift family this summer. Convenient motor coach transportation is available from Madison, Milwaukee, and surrounding Wisconsin suburbs.
