Camp Live Oak is a camp working in a cooperative effort with Florida's State Park System to provide an environmental experience. We offer a unique opportunity for kids to experience the wonder and joy of curiosity, discovery and new knowledge in regards to nature in general and South Florida ecosystems in particular.

We are proud of the fact that Camp Live Oak is one of only a few American Camping Association (ACA) accredited camps in Broward and Dade counties. This assures that we meet and often exceed over 300 standards of health and safety, programming, staffing and accountability set by ACA.

in addition to meeting the ideal adult/camper ratio required for aca accreditation, our staff is comprised of highly qualified and certified teachers, counselors, specialists, scientists, state guides, ecologists, environmentalists, and water safety instructors.

All of these factors help us to assure that you and you child have a pleasurable and safe summer, full of positive learning experiences. Each staff member understands our philosophy that every child is gifted, special and unique and must be provided the means to develop self-confidence and independence by meeting challenges in a variety of safe, fun-filled activities. They make sure that campers get the individual nurturing and guidance they need to grow and develop. Our goal is to have each child spend their day feeling good about themselves.

At Camp Live Oak we strive to remain flexible in providing a summer program with a wide range of creative, academic and recreational opportunities that are physically wholesome, mentally stimulating, satisfying and socially sound. We attempt, by policy and example, to foster sportsmanship, cooperation, self-discipline, respect for property and nature, leadership and recreational skills.
