Outdoor Programs

Camp Kiwanis is the first exposure that many Boys & Girls Club members have to a wilderness setting. For some, it is the first time away from their own neighborhoods. New experiences like nature hikes, archery, kayaking, swimming, fishing and orienteering become precious life lessons, sparking new opportunities for personal growth.

To register, talk to your Club Director!

Summer Program

Each year, more than 600 young people attend Camp Kiwanis during a five-day summer session. By living and working in small groups, teams of campers rely on themselves and each other to master new skills and complete a journey of self-discovery.

Camp’s Landscape

This unique site is located on the scenic and historic Broad River and Bartram Trail. The Camp’s program and facility theme is centered on William Bartram’s travels along the Broad River in 1773 just after the Cherokee Nation sold the property to the British Government. All programs feature Cherokee Culture, Georgia’s Colonial History, and Bartram’s passion for nature and adventure.
