Being a kid is all about having FUN! Yet, many of today's children do not get enough time outside to just play. Unstructured and without parental supervision. That's right, without adults. Remember when you were a child out with your friends...not only were you having fun but you were practicing how to get along, how to motivate others, how to resolve disagreements and more. A children's summer camp like Swift Nature camp allows children the opportunity to mot only have structured fun but also some supervised unstructured time. Our daily camp schedule includes three times when we teach children different activities. Each day children will be able to select one of the activities that they most want to engage in . However, the most popular time of the day is the unstructured time, FREE TIME. During this time kids can do what they want- Go swimming, canoeing, catch frogs or just read a book. Most campers agree...there is so much to do and so little time. Why is this FREE TIME so popular? Kids tell us it is a relief from "normal life" where children are the over scheduled, pressured to perform at school and sports. For many childhood has become a stressful job, its all about sports, grades, chores, music lessons and so much more. Residential summer camp provides the place where children can set their own pace, direct their self interests and just have FUN. When it is all said and one to play is to learn and to learn you have to have the time to play.

The Russell W. Hogrefe Fresh Start Fund was established by Russell W. Hogrefe during his tenure as Executive Director of the American Camp Association, Illinois Section. He served in that position from 1979 until his retirement in 1996. Russ spent his entire professional career providing children's summer camp and other services to families with very low income. Teachers, social workers, counselors or other professionals refer campers. ACA Illinois Section staff and the person making the referral select an appropriate day or resident camp program. Camps must be accredited by the American Camp Association.
The camper's family is encouraged to pay whatever they can afford for the camping experience. The camp provides a partial campership and the Fund pays the balance. If you would like to donate fund to help an underprivileged child attend summer camp in 2009 please send a check or make an online donation. Summer camp is an experience that enriches lives and all children should have the opportunity to attend kids summer camp.
