New Hampshire, or as our cool, imaginary character, Franky the Flying Moose likes to call it, "the Granite Playground", is a playground for kids who love Target sports. This tiny, yet mighty state squeezes in mountains, lakes, and a whole lot of greenery. Now, imagine Franky, soaring over the White Mountains, his antlers pointed towards the sky, giggling while snowflakes tickle his nose. The children of New Hampshire, or as Franky fondly calls them, "the Granite Greats," are no different. They're bold, brave, and have a bullseye in their hearts. These kids aren't just good at target sports, they're flipping fantastic! They make throwing darts, shooting arrows, and hurling discs look as easy as eating a stack of pancakes. And oh, the stories Franky could tell! Like that time little Susie Sneakers hit a bullseye on her very first try in archery. With a twinkle in her eye and a grin on her face, she had Franky laughing so hard, he nearly crashed into Lake Winnipesaukee! Or the day when Jimmy Jumprope, the smallest kid in town, threw a Frisbee so far, it flew over Mount Washington and landed smack-dab in the middle of a maple syrup farm, causing quite a sticky situation! So, if you're ever visiting New Hampshire, keep an eye out for a flying moose and the Granite Greats. They're easy to spot - just follow the sound of laughter, the sight of soaring targets, and the smell of sweet, sweet victory. And always remember, in the Granite Playground, fun is always on target!

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.
