Our boys are taught to appreciate simplicity of life, values of human relations, wonders of nature, importance of self-reliance, respect for our natural environment and the thrill of high adventure. A special effort is made to send every boy back home stronger in body, keener in mind, more appreciative of nature, and nobler in character. Camp Carolina is a boy's summer paradise of 220 acres nestled in Lamb's Creek Valley, and bordered by over 2 million acres of public lands. Camp Carolina is about adventure and meeting challenges head-on. It's about simple faith that anything can be accomplished through determination and enthusiasm. It's about living fully, setting personal goals and enjoying accomplishments.
Our commitment to the younger boys, as well as the older ones, transcends throughout our camp program.
