from the camp director Dear Parents and Campers, Wow, did we have fun last summer! If you are new to our program - welcome! If you are returning to camp - we've missed you! We are so excited to offer our camp program again this year to your children! We truly believe they will take away so much from just one week with us. Campers will experience an "overnight camp" feel in a day camp setting each day. Our farm will also provide them with the opportunity to tap into their own imaginations, problem solve when faced with challenges, and interact with our farm friends. On behalf of our HHF family, I'd like to welcome you to camp! We hope that our little retreat provides you and your camper with peace, happiness, and healing! OPEN HOUSE Saturday, June 2, 2018 -- 9am-11am Meet our fantastic counselors, sweet animals, and check out our farm. God Bless, Jenna Gibbons Camp Director

He learned about rescue animals, did art projects, exercised, and had a wonderful time!" We think the development of character is extremely important for today's youth. Our camp program embodies the following values, and we incorporate these into our program: SERVICE EMPOWERMENT RESPONSIBILITY KINDNESS LEADERSHIP Camp will run the week of June 11. Camps are available for children ages 7-13. One full week will be Monday - Friday from 8:00am - 12:00pm.

H I C K O R Y H I L L F A R M S U M M E R 2 0 1 8 Safety and Staff It is important that our parents know that our campers' safety and well-being are priority at Hickory Hill Farm. We carefully select our volunteer counselors by completing background checks and look specifically at their qualifications and experience - many are certified TN teachers! All counselors go through structured and detailed staff training as well. We have CPR and First Aid certification and work in small groups (1:8 counselor to camper ratio). Our expectations for staff and campers center around safety on the farm, during activities, and around animals.

A Day at Camp Campers will come home tired, dirty, HAPPY, and full of GREAT stories!
