Welcome to Camp Swing in the beautiful Mendocino Woodlands!

October 22-24, 2010

Camp Swing, a dancing tradition

Camp Swing started in 1997, and we're still at it. If you have been to Camp before, we know you can't wait to get back to the woods and see your old friends. If you've never been, you should really become part of the tradition. Registration is open, and you can also join our email list to be kept up to date with all the latest haps!

Fabulous Camp Band — Stompy Jones!

Stompy Jones (formerly Swing Session) has been the Camp Swing band since 1998! Meet them in the woods to fly to music that JazzWest.com called "A Jitterbug party waiting to happen."

The Blues Revue Magazine said, "The Stompy Jones has more jump than a kangaroo convention." We know you'll agree when you hear these guys on a starlit night under a redwood canopy! And don't miss your opportunity to hobnob with these fabulous fellas in the mess hall!

Gorgeous 1930's WPA Campground!

Three hours north of San Francisco is a wood and stone work art created by the WPA CCC during Depression 1930s. This beautiful, historic location is a perfect setting for our camp which focuses on inclusion, camaraderie, and fun!

Outrageous Variety Show

The Talent Show on Saturday night is one of the Camp's Highlights!

Bring an act, or just sit back and enjoy the MANY zany talents & imaginings of the Camp Swing Campers & staff!
