FFGC’s Wekiva Youth Camp has been located at Wekiwa Springs State Park since 1974, under a partnership with the Florida Dept of Natural Resources and Division of Parks & Recreation. The facility has grown through the years and now boasts a swimming pool, craft hall, screened pavilion, dining hall, canteen, nature hut, outdoor amphitheater, sports field and Volunteer and Camper Cabins. Over a six-week period each summer, campers completing Grades 1-8 spend a week living in cabins clustered around a fire circle learning about the importance of conservation and protection of our environment in a protected natural setting. Adult Volunteers and Environmental Educators serve as Program Leaders and Role Models as our Campers enjoy swimming, hiking, nature photography, crafts, nature study, skit night, campfires, great food and more at this American Camp Association Accredited environmental youth camp. The Infirmary is staffed 24/7 with a Registered Nurse on site daily. Our Camp Director supervises the activities of the Campers and Counselors, many who are former campers themselves. Come see this wonderful camp and meet the Counselors, Director, and Staff.
