Fresh Air Home
The Fresh Air Home Camp is a non-profit organization located on Tybee Island, Georgia that began in 1897 to increase the health and happiness of children in need. Campers enjoy three healthy meals a day, snacks, beach time, arts and crafts, music, bible lessons, recreational activities, cookouts, ice cream socials, water day, a dolphin tour, themed evening programs and much more. Everything that the children need is provided for them without charge to the family.
New for 2026!
We’re getting ready for summer 2026! Here’s what’s new:
We have added a new REQUIRED camper physical. The form must be completed by the parent and camper’s physician and submitted with registration.
Campers will not be slotted into a session until the physical form is completed and uploaded to their registration form.
Important Notes:
Registration will open to returning campers on March 16 and then to the general public on March 30, 2026.

Application Information
Returning campers are given one week to apply for camp, prior to camp opening to the public. Once the application is open to the public it is a first come first served basis.
Families will be notified concerning their camp selection 1-2 weeks after the application is received. Look for an email from camp with a camp assignment.
We make every effort to place your child in their first choice of camp; however, sometimes it is not possible and they may be placed in their second or third choices.
