Once upon a time, in the magically enchanting state of Massachusetts, famously known as MA, where buildings were as high as beanstalks and the autumn leaves painted the town in hues of red, orange, and yellow, lived a lively bunch of kids who had an undying love for one thing - Tennis! Among these kids was our cool and charismatic hero, "Terrific Teddy Tennis," who was as famous for his funny puns as for his swift tennis moves. Teddy was a tennis enthusiast, he lived, breathed, and even dreamt tennis, and of course, his favorite meal was spaghetti and "meatballs." He led his fun brigade of tennis champs who were all unique and quirky in their own way. There was "Slamming Sammy," who could spin a tennis racket on his finger while doing a handstand; "Jumping Jilly," who could leap over the tennis net in a single bound, and "Lobbing Larry," who could lob a tennis ball straight into a bucket sitting twenty yards away. They all had one thing in common - a love for tennis that was as deep as the Atlantic Ocean, bordering their beautiful state. The tennis courts in MA were their kingdom, and they ruled it with their laughter, cheers, and, of course, their fantastic tennis moves. They believed that the tennis ball was like the sun, setting in their opponents' court and rising in theirs. In the beautiful MA, amidst the delightful aroma of clam chowder and the cheers for the Red Sox, the kids' laughter echoed, their spirits soared, and their tennis rackets swung, making every day a grand tennis carnival. Their shenanigans were as legendary as Paul Revere's midnight ride, making them the beloved Tennis Troupe of the enchanting state of Massachusetts.

Nestled in 178 acres of lush woodland is a serene escape from the city, a place fondly known as Camp Swamp. This overnight Christian camp, located just two hours east of bustling Atlanta, has been serving as a peaceful retreat since 1992. We like to think of it as our own "little slice of heaven," offering a respite from the daily hustle and bustle, and inviting people to reconnect with nature and their spirituality. Our primary offering is a week-long summer camp, but we've expanded over the years to include more than just summer fun. As part of our mission to support families and churches, we now also host three family camps throughout the year, as well as four parent/child retreats. These events offer a chance for families to bond, parents to connect with their children, and individuals to grow in their faith. Moreover, our facilities are not exclusive to our organized events. Camp Swamp also offers rentals to schools, churches, universities, sports teams, and even business groups. Whether you're planning a camp, a retreat, or a team-building excursion, our serene setting and well-equipped facilities provide the ideal backdrop for an unforgettable experience.
