Camp Dixie is a traditional summer camp for boys and girls located in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Northeast Georgia. Camp Dixie is a small private residential camp founded by A.A. Jameson in 1914. For 100 years, generations of families have enjoyed the traditions and shared the memories of their summers at Camp Dixie.
Our rich history and limited enrollment are what sets us apart from other camps. Limiting our enrollment to around 70 campers, ages 6 to 15, allows us to emphasize the "family" atmosphere that we feel is so important. While providing a safe and supportive environment, Camp Dixie creates a unique setting where campers can make new friends and learn new skills, while learning more about themselves.

There is something for everyone no matter whether you like hiking through the woods, playing in the water or hitting a home run! With so many activities planned each day, you will be having fun from sun up to sun down. Each activity is kept small with only eight campers to an activity so everyone has an opportunity to participate rather than just being a spectator.

Each week at council fire, campers eagerly look forward to receiving their awards. We have several different award programs - - Honor awards, activity awards, special awards and novelty awards. The Honor Awards are our most cherished awards. The campers who receive a Honor Award exemplify the qualities of our seven principles through their daily living.
