So much more than just a week away from home, summer camp can change a child’s life. Grammy Award-winning artist Zac Brown founded Camp Southern Ground with the purpose of getting kids and teens outside in an inclusive, tech-free environment where kindness and community are the foundation of the programming. From day one, campers make connections; harvest and eat food from an on-site organic garden; learn and develop life skills like bike riding, swimming, cooking, archery, and more. Teens will enjoy diving into extra activities and programming focused on skill development and self-discovery. From s’mores around the campfire to art and music classes to our amazing 1,200-foot zipline and multi-level ropes course, your camper will have the time of their life, build relationships with their peers and counselors, and make memories that will last a lifetime!

Since 1980, Steve & Kate’s Camp has put kids in charge–allowing campers to choose from a variety of activities in real-time, including sewing, stop-motion animation, coding & gaming, sports & recreation, maker crafts, water play, baking, and more.
As children are empowered to make their own choices at camp, they discover new reserves of confidence, resiliency, and creativity as they learn to make course corrections & trust themselves and as they go.
Families can buy any number of days, to use at any time–no weekly reservations required. Or, buy a Summer Pass, which covers the whole season. Either way, any unused Passes are automatically refunded at summer’s end.
Ages: 5–12 | Lunch, snacks & all hours (8am–6pm) included.
Camp Hollymont, founded in 1983, is an ACA accredited Christian girls’ camp, nestled in the beautiful mountains of North Georgia, on the campus of the Rabun Gap Nacoochee Boarding School. It’s a place where young girls can truly come alive, and where faith, friendship, and adventure come together. We live by the camp motto of “Living and Learning, with Love and Laughter.” While there is fun every day through various skills, playing on our lake, daily devotional time, and adventure trips, the most important focus is shaping and stewarding young women to use the skills they learn for lifelong success. With incredible counselors that go through extensive training, and a nurturing environment, it’s a place where young ladies leave feeling inspired, connected to their faith, and filled with fun and lifelong friends.
