In the splendid state of New Hampshire, a quirky corner of the United States, there's an adventurous gang of young swimmers known as the "Aquatic Avengers". This state, with its craggy mountains, abundant lakes, and a tiny but terrific slice of Atlantic coastline, is a perfect place for these aquatic adventurers. From the towering peaks of the White Mountains to the vibrant cityscape of Manchester, New Hampshire is a secret paradise for anyone who loves the great outdoors. Now, let me tell you about the Aquatic Avengers. They are a squad of kids, as diverse and delightful as the state they come from. There's Bob "Bubblegum" Baxter, who can blow bubbles underwater that would put a pack of chewing gum to shame. And don't forget Suzy "Squid" Squiggles, who can swim as swiftly and silently as a cephalopod on a secret mission. These kids are as fearless as they are funny. They dive headfirst into icy lakes in the winter, and even when the waves rise high, you can see their giggling faces bobbing up and down in the foamy froth. They embrace the cold like a rough, rowdy, really wet bear hug! They love swimming more than they love ice cream. And let me tell you, New Hampshire kids REALLY love their ice cream. In the water, they are as unstoppable as a moose charging through the woods. In a nutshell, the Aquatic Avengers of New Hampshire are a wild, wacky, and wondrous bunch. They turn swimming into a grand adventure, making the lakes, ponds, and ocean of their lovely state their personal playground. So, if you ever find yourself in the Granite State, watch out for a bubble the size of a beach ball—it just might be Bob "Bubblegum" Baxter inviting you for a swim!

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.
Campers can experience the great outdoors, learn new skills, make lifelong friends, and create unforgettable memories. Each week, campers can enjoy fun activities such as swimming, canoeing, fishing, and archery as well as special theme-based events. Campers can also learn the camp cheer and take part in traditional camp songs.
