Camp Pillsbury is a great place for children to develop their passions, learn new skills and make new friends. Camp Pillsbury is a place that is designed to create happy memories, and encourage kids to try new things that they can't do in everyday life.
Our fully elective program allows campers to select all of their favorite activities and to also try new ones within our established daily schedule.

Every program and activity is open to all age groups and all skill levels where we meet each child's individual needs and respect their individuality.
Our day is comprised of 6 one hour periods; three Majors and three Minors. Majors are taken at the same time each day with the same staff and campers and is an activity that each camper has chosen to learn more about, get better at and be in the end of session show or exhibition. Campers choose three Minors each day that they can try once or repeat as often as they like. This allows campers plenty of opportunity to try new activities they have never been exposed to before.
Campers thrive, building on existing interests and developing new ones. They flourish and excel in the areas they become passionate about and self-confidence soars. They become better singers, dancers, actors, athletes, artists, and musicians.
Campers sleep in dorms and are provided great food, fun and friends throughout the summer. It is a fantastic overnight or day camp for boys and girls ages 6-17. The campus is located just south of Minneapolis, in Owatonna MN. Give your kids a summer they will never forget!

Our special Discovery Camp is a nurturing program for first-time overnight campers, offering additional staff to provide support and encouragement to overcome homesickness and build confidence. The program welcomes no more than 50 first-time campers, and the special attention that this intimate group receives is the reason that more than 92% of them wish to return.

Our small size allows us to promote each child's personal development by providing fun, friendship and leadership in a supportive and noncompetitive environment. While away from home, children will have the opportunity to act on their own, become self-reliant, and try things for themselves.
Many of our kids return year after year saying that "Swift allows me to be my real self with real people." And we feel that's a good thing!
All of this happens in the fun and sun of the north woods of Wisconsin. For staff and campers alike, Swift Nature Camp is more than just a place to be: it is their summer home. So why not have your child join our summer camp family this summer?

We believe every teen should be accepted for who they are, and we seek to develop empowered youth by teaching a healthy appreciation of nature, community living, and the gift of themselves. Teens gain a true sense of confidence and competence while paddling their way into the Canadian wilderness.
Nearly all activities at Laketrails involve the water! Swimming, beach games, fishing, Fun-yaks, canoeing, and campfires are all popular pastimes. A 5-6 day canoe trip through the island wilderness of Ontario is at the heart of our 9-day program.

Returning campers are eligible to apply for our Camper-Worker program which is a leadership position for campers.

CAMP PROGRAM INFO: Our unique style and philosophy of outdoor ministry is built on 5 central goals:
SAFETY
We know how to have outrageous fun and be safe too. Our brand of fun is always safe and inclusive. Our laughter is kind. We know that fun opens doors, builds relationships, and brings campers to a place where they can learn, share, and grow— so we take fun very seriously!
FUN
The best way to show a student that you care about them is to help them have good, clean fun—and lots of it. Fun builds trust, breaks down barriers, and removes masks. Fun also keeps them coming back for more allowing us to build relationships.
MESSAGE
This is the “WHY” of Summer Camp. We will share an honest and compelling picture of God’s love as we experience it through Jesus Christ. The Gospel should be the best news we ever hear in life, and be full of joy.
AFFIRMATION
We love every student, just as they are. Period. This is not a means to another end, this is an end in and of itself. Campers will know that they were genuinely and whole-heartedly loved with no strings attached.
COMMUNITY
One outcome of accomplishing the first four goals is a profound experience of Community. These are friends and camp counselors on whom they can count, long after everyone returns home.
FAMILY CAMP SESSION(S): ALL-CHURCH CAMP
Thursday, July 21 – Sunday, July 24
Cost: $175 per adult, $125 per student (up to age 17), and a max of $600 per family. Children ages 3 and under are free.
