In the bubbly boisterous land of New Jersey, a swarm of young, bright-eyed explorers called Kids of STEM/STEAM, or as we like to call them, "Brainy Bunch," are always on a whimsical adventure. This sunny state, shaped like a jigsaw puzzle piece, is home to a variety of enchanting landscapes, from the sparkling Atlantic coastline to the dizzying heights of the Appalachian Mountains. But what makes it even more magical are the giggling troves of Brainy Bunch, each armed with their favorite tool – be it a microscope, a paintbrush, or a robot they've built from scratch! Our very own Brainy Bunch are not ordinary kids. They are super kids! They can unravel the mysteries of the universe, decode the language of computers, build towering structures, create enchanting melodies and paint their dreams into reality – all before they sit down for lunch! Our fearless friend, Bucky the Beaver, is their guide. Bucky, with his magnetic personality, and an infectious laugh that sounds like water splashing against the river rocks, wears a shiny lab coat adorned with all sorts of peculiar gadgets, all as colorful as his personality! In the heart of New Jersey, the Brainy Bunch, led by Bucky, turn ordinary days into extraordinary explorations. They dive into the ocean’s depths to converse with curious creatures, climb mountains to chat with chirpy birds, delve into dark caves to investigate hidden treasures, and even travel to the mysterious realms of outer space! Yes, it's funny, but it's also true! Because in the land of New Jersey, the Brainy Bunch knows no boundaries. Every day is a new journey, every moment a new discovery, and every laugh a celebration of their shared love for STEM/STEAM.

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.
The Madison Area YMCA, part of a worldwide values-driven association, inclusive of all people, provides quality programs that develop a healthy spirit, mind and body and promotes the core values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility.
The Madison Community Pool was founded by a group of Madison Residents back in 1967 as a summer spot for fun & recreation for Madison families. Just as it was when established, MCP is not funded by Madison tax dollars and operates as a 501c nonprofit, unlike the surrounding pools in our area. As always, we thank our members for their continued support through membership year after year, and hope to remain an integral summer destination for residents for years to come.
