Once upon a time, in the magical land of Michigan, a realm known for its shimmering lakes and enchanting forests, where the apples grow plump and juicy and the sunsets paint the sky with candy colors. Lived a hilarious group of kids, known far and wide as the "Colorful Comedians." These weren't your ordinary kids, oh no! They were the most imaginative painters you ever did see, and they came from every corner of Michigan. From the bustling city of Detroit to the serene shores of Lake Michigan, they brought their brushes, palettes, and a whole lot of laughter. Leading these fun-loving kiddos was the whimsical character named Brushy McFingerpaint, a mischievous critter born from a drop of magic paint. Wearing a beret made from blueberries, a paintbrush for a tail, and rainbow splashes on his fur, Brushy was just as colorful as his personality. With a twinkle in his eyes and a joke always ready, he'd have everyone in stitches in no time! Every day, Brushy and the Colorful Comedians would gather in the biggest, greenest meadow you could imagine. Here, they'd paint masterpieces that came alive with their laughter. Bright butterflies that tickled your nose, grinning trees with bubblegum leaves and even a giant, chocolate waterfall, their paintings were never less than extraordinary. In the great state of Michigan, where the lakes sparkle like diamonds and the forests whisper ancient tales, the Colorful Comedians and Brushy McFingerpaint paint the world as only they can - with a whole palette of fun, a rainbow of laughs, and a masterpiece of memories!

Nestled in 178 acres of lush woodland is a serene escape from the city, a place fondly known as Camp Swamp. This overnight Christian camp, located just two hours east of bustling Atlanta, has been serving as a peaceful retreat since 1992. We like to think of it as our own "little slice of heaven," offering a respite from the daily hustle and bustle, and inviting people to reconnect with nature and their spirituality. Our primary offering is a week-long summer camp, but we've expanded over the years to include more than just summer fun. As part of our mission to support families and churches, we now also host three family camps throughout the year, as well as four parent/child retreats. These events offer a chance for families to bond, parents to connect with their children, and individuals to grow in their faith. Moreover, our facilities are not exclusive to our organized events. Camp Swamp also offers rentals to schools, churches, universities, sports teams, and even business groups. Whether you're planning a camp, a retreat, or a team-building excursion, our serene setting and well-equipped facilities provide the ideal backdrop for an unforgettable experience.
We've been a part of the community for over 73 years and have grown from 8 to 150 acres! Our expansion in 1998 allowed us to provide the Southwest Michigan community with a year-round facility that serves families, schools, and businesses. In addition, we've kept nearly a mile of Eagle Lake shoreline undeveloped, creating a safe and natural environment for our guests. We hold over 5,000 guests each year and are licensed by the State of Michigan and accredited by the American Camp Association. Camp Kidwell is the perfect place for your children to learn, grow, and have fun! We offer a wide variety of activities that help foster a sense of community and create lasting memories.
