Deep in the heart of the Lone Star State of Texas, where the cowboy hats are as big as the hearts of those who wear them, lies an adventurous world waiting to be explored by a bunch of young, eager cowpokes. Our story takes us through the mesquite-covered plains, past the cattle ranches, and into the heart of the cities where the skyscrapers reach up to tickle the belly of the sky. Now, gather 'round, lil' partners, for an adventure of Texas-sized proportions with your unflappable guide, Tumbleweed Ted! He's a tumbleweed with a ten-gallon hat, a pair of spurs, and a love for Texas trivia that's as wide as the Rio Grande. Tumbleweed Ted is the best tour guide this side of the Pecos! He loves nothing more than to take Texas kids on epic field trips filled with laughter, learning, and a fair share of loco antics! Imagine a busload of kids, as lively as a box of jumping beans, heading out on a grand Texas field trip. They're as diverse as the state's flora and fauna, their eyes shine brighter than the stars at a Hill Country night, their laughter rings louder than a Longhorn's bellow. Field trips are their passport to a world beyond the classroom, where every park is a playground, every museum is a time machine, and every historical monument tells a tale. Whether they're exploring the dramatic cliffs and caverns of Big Bend National Park, retracing the steps of heroes at the Alamo, or launching their dreams sky-high at the Space Center Houston, these kids have an insatiable curiosity and a spirit as wild and free as the tumbleweeds rolling across the Texas plains. They know, deep in their hearts, that the best way to learn about this great state of Texas is to experience it, and boy, do they experience it! So, hold onto your hats and join Tumbleweed Ted and his gang of intrepid explorers on their next Texas-sized adventure. Yee-haw!

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.
