MEDICAL HELP &
SAFETY
We meet the requirements of American Camp Association (ACA) for medical supervision. The
water supply is inspected and approved by the state health department.
Cohutta Springs is proud of its safety record. Important: Your health
history form (which will be sent to you along with your parent pak)
must be brought to camp with you. Please note: Camper registration includes limited accident insurance. Health insurance remains the family's responsibility, i.e. flu, earaches, and other personal health issues.
FRIENDS
CAN STAY TOGETHER IF…
you sign up for the same attraction. Campers are assigned to cabins
according to their attraction, and on a “first come, first
serve” basis. This will enable counselor supervision at all
times throughout the week, and will enhance your registration experience
on Sunday. When registering online, register on the same day for
the same attraction to insure availability. If mailing your applications,
mail applications to the office in the same envelope.
YES, CAMPERS CAN STAY MORE THAN ONE WEEK
As long as it is age appropriate for your child, we would be glad
to have him/her register for a second week. Free laundry service is provided
for campers staying more than one week.
7 TOTALLY HEALTHY DAYS
Sunshine, mountain fresh air, healthy role models, lots of exercise
and super healthy food (delicious and complete vegetarian meals)
all combine to provide our campers the 7 healthiest days to be found
anywhere!
COHUTTA SPRINGS CAMP
STORE
At our own camp store, campers buy Cohutta Springs mementos including
caps, postcards, T-shirts, snacks, etc. We suggest $25-$75 spending
money. You may send money with the application to put on your child’s
account. We encourage campers to keep their money in the camp store
bank where it is safe and they have access to it during all camp
store hours. Whatever money is not spent will be returned to them
at weeks end along with a detailed account of their expenditures.
CAMP
CAMPER CHECK-IN/PICK-UP
Check-In on Sunday is from 2:00-4:30 pm. Because our staff is
anxious to make your child’s week at camp the best it can
be, they are totally involved with camp preparation details.Therefore,
we cannot accept early camper check-ins or have parents drop-off campers
early. Camper pick-up time is at 10:00 a.m. Sunday. Thank you for
your cooperation.
CAMPERSHIP
FUND
Because “kids come first” at Cohutta Springs Youth Camp
we believe that no child should be turned away due to finances.
Our Campership Fund, made possible through the generosity of friends of Cohutta
Springs, is available to any family with financial need. Thank you
for investing in young people. For those seeking Campership Fund
assistance, call to apply early, as funds are limited: 800-567-1844 ext 346.

COHUTTA
SPRINGS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT FUND
Cohutta Springs Youth Camp needs more camper accommodations and
additional dining hall space. Your contributions will help insure
that campers will not be turned away. Thank you!
OUTSTANDING
VALUE
Most camps that compare to Cohutta Springs charge up to three
times as much and still don’t offer our outstanding staff/camper
ratio of 1:3. This can happen because we are not for profit and
our program is sponsored by the Georgia-Cumberland Conference
of Seventh-day Adventists. Adventists believe that providing positive
Christian experiences for kids is a high priority.
