High Meadows Camp is a summer day camp for girls and boys ages
from pre-school through eighth grade. We offer campers a variety
of experiences, each of them pointing toward the goal of self-discovery
and enrichment in an atmosphere of fun.
In relaxed and noncompetitive situations, the camper is encouraged
to branch out into new areas to gain confidence and to strive for
proficiency in those areas in which he or she is already competent.
The emphasis is always on personal improvement and satisfaction
gained, never on keeping score or bettering someone else.
High Meadows Camp was begun in 1973. Our camp is an accredited
member of the American Camp Association (ACA). High Meadows
has 40 acres of forest and meadows. It is home to many farm animals.
Campers spend the majority of time out of doors in active and reflective
nature-based programming. Enclosed shelter areas are available for
inclement weather.
The
camp consists of 120 staff members, the majority of whom are
teachers, college students and professionals in childcare and
recreation.
We welcome over 800 children each summer. Many of our campers
are transported by bus from pick-up stations around the Atlanta
north metro area each day. Each day, 300 children and 80 staff
members come to experience summer fun in a structured recreational
program focusing on self improvement, personal responsibility,
and environmental respect.
High Meadows provides a safe environment where campers can participate
in both active and quiet out-of-door activities in a social atmosphere
where each feels loved and respected. We want to engender a sense
of adventure in a child's stay at camp. During activities, skills
are taught in a non-competitive way to ensure a feeling of personal
success. A strong emphasis is placed on the importance of others,
their feelings and property. Campers learn about and share in respecting
the natural environment.
