Forty years ago, in the pine forests of East Texas, my mom
and dad had a dream to build an extraordinary summer camp
experience for boys and girls... a dream where children and
teens come to experience a special bond of friendship that
lasts forever ... a dream where individual skills and
talents are tested around the framework of team spirit,
sports and adventure ... and a dream where an amazing staff
of camp counselors provide leadership, enthusiasm and plenty
of hugs.
Today, that dream has never been more alive as youth from
all over the country come to play in a safe, Christian
environment and "catch the magic" of Huawni. The language is
laughter and words fall short of fully describing the
experience.
If you are searching for Texas summer camps, I would love to
visit with you about Camp Huawni. Phone or
email and let's talk
about camp.
Camp Huawni enrolls 130 campers in each of four sessions, two sessions of 2-week duration and two sessions lasting 1-week. The ratio of campers (girls to boys) is approximately 60% to 40%. Girls’ camp is located on the south campus and boys’ camp is located on the north campus. Both girls and boys begin at age 7 with girls attending through age 16 and boys through age 15. Most campers return year after year, and a growing number of campers have parents who attended Huawni. The camper to counselor ratio is approximately 3 to 1 with counselors living in the cabins with the campers.
