2025 Summer Camp

Registration opens Thursday, December 5, 2024 at 8am.

Camps at the Greenway

The Anne Springs Close Greenway offers full-day camp options to youth in Kindergarten - 8th grade when school is not in session. The Greenway's 2,100 acres of preserved land allows for hiking, outdoor play and nature activities for a unique camp experience.

For more than 15 years, the Greenway has offered camps to the children of Fort Mill, Charlotte, Rock Hill, Indian Land, Lancaster and the surrounding areas. Nearly 5,000 campers come through Greenway camp programs, and many past campers return to work as counselors.

The Greenway gives children a chance to experience and celebrate nature. Campers end the week muddy, tired and full of memories made with new friends in the great outdoors!
