These gutsy little guys and gals absolutely love to explore the wilderness, always armed with their trusty cheesehead hats for protection and inspiration. Each morning, with the rising sun as their alarm clock, the Hiking Hobgoblins of WI set off on their newest adventure. The rolling hills, dense forests, and sparkling lakes of Wisconsin are their playground. Their leader, a loveable and goofy fellow named Sir Gouda Giggles, guides them through the wilderness with an infectious laughter that seems to echo through the valleys. Wisconsin is an adventurer's dream, rich with towering trees older than your great-great-grandparents, bountiful wildlife that'll have your eyes popping, and trails that wind like a never-ending jigsaw puzzle. And don't even get me started on the lakes! They are so clear and blue, you'd swear they are giant mirrors reflecting the sky! The Hiking Hobgoblins laugh, play and explore, turning every rock, sniffing every flower, and greeting every woodland creature they meet. They are fearless, curious, and always hungry for their favorite snack, Wisconsin's world-famous cheese! After all, every adventurer needs fuel, and what's better than a chunk of squeaky, delicious cheese to keep the energy levels high? So, if you're ever in Wisconsin and hear a burst of laughter echoing from the hills, just smile and wave. You might just spot the red cheesehead hats of the Hiking Hobgoblins of WI, bobbing in the distance, off on another grand adventure.

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.

Our campers have the opportunity to build relationships, learn about themselves and others, and develop life skills - all while having fun in our unique and vibrant community.
