About Camp Augusta

Camp Augusta is not your average summer camp. A dash of wish, a smattering of wonder, and a sprinkle of surprise. An open heart, a curious mind, and an inability to tell the difference between your skin color, your constant dirt tan and, the paint and glitter permanently embedded on your body. A wacky playfulness, an inspirational spirit, and a never-ending supply of empathy. Special wake-ups, unpredictable cabin activities, magical play stations, enchanting evening programs, and awe-inspiring embers. 90 campers, 60 staff, 10 horses, and 6 chickens. Multiple unicorns, a splattering of zombies, and a friendly coven of vampires. The longest staff training in the country, 150 + clinics, flat hierarchy, nonviolent communication, success counseling, AND fortnightly oatmeal fights. The combination of you and us; the ideal amalgamation to reclaim and foster the beauty, wonder, awe, potential, and innocence of childhood.
