“Camp Discovery really helped my child learn how to better socialize with other children.”

Camp Discovery at His Acres is a not-for-profit recreation therapy camp offering a natural setting, a safe and accepting emotional environment and goal-oriented activities.

In this setting and through recreation activities, we provide guests with the atmosphere and tools to improve or develop their awareness of personal strengths and weaknesses, confidence in positive independent thinking skills and awareness of the needs of others.

We teach children concepts or skills they need for managing their lives better. Even though they’re learning, they sometimes don’t even realize that the purpose of their field trip is educational because we teach through activities which are fun! Whether they are children who would benenfit from developing leadership skills or those who have more acute challenges, they learn by being involved in activities designed just for their needs. They learn, heal and grow while having fun.

Camp Discovery is not a summer camp. Currently the program year is during the months that school is open. Most guests bring a group of youth from schools, after school programs, youth groups or clubs, gifted and talented groups, children’s homes or counseling centers for a field trip or retreat.

The mission of Camp Discovery at His Acres is to develop a not-for-profit recreation therapy camp offering a natural setting, a safe and accepting emotional environment and goal-oriented activities for South Carolinians.

In this setting and through recreation activities, we provide guests with the atmosphere and tools to improve or develop their awareness of personal strengths and weaknesses, confidence in positive independent thinking skills and awareness of the needs of others.
