Gator Wilderness Boys Camp School

Welcome
At Gator Wilderness Camp School we use a wilderness camp setting to provide an atmosphere where boys can work through problems and emotional hurts to work towards wholeness in behavior, emotional and spiritual peace.
The campers live together in a small group with lots of interaction while they work towards common goals planned out by the group. It is this interaction and guidance by staff that the boys learn from life experiences to help others and thereby help themselves.
Thank you for your interest in Gator Wilderness Camp. We hope this website will give an adequate understanding of our camp school.
We are a year-round residential boy’s camp school utilizing positive peer group pressure in a natural setting to deal with at risk youth and troubled teens. We are located in northern Charlotte County in south west Florida on a 250-acre campus.
In ever growing numbers, children and youth are dealing with highly complex problems resulting in difficulty getting along at home and school. The teenagers and children are very sophisticated in their misbehavior; some are obviously aggressive and too “street-wise” for the average parent or child-care worker to handle. The problem teens today often know how to go around adults, how to “do them in” and make them back off. For the most part, they have learned to mistrust adults and cling to their own group. This behavior results in negative peer influence controlling these youth.
Gator Wilderness Camp School is designed after Christian therapeutic camping to help meet these special challenges. Our purpose is to help young boys and teenagers reach positive goals they have set for themselves. We encourage this by providing qualified staff and an atmosphere of love where a boy can learn about himself and how he affects others around him. Some of the boys who come to us have been through other programs, private schools, therapy and special education, and still are struggling to get along at home and school. Gator Camp takes a different approach than traditional schools and seeks to reach the heart of the boy.
