Camp Hollymont for Girls

What Camp Hollymont for Girls does

Camp Hollymont for Girls is a privately-owned Christian overnight summer camp founded in 1983, located in Rabun Gap, Georgia, with a winter administrative office in Black Mountain, North Carolina. The camp serves girls ages 7-15 (grades 1-9) through a portfolio of program tiers: 7-day Starter Sessions for first-time campers, 13-day Classic Sessions as the core offering, 20-27 day Extended Experiences for returning campers, a 4-day Mother-Daughter preview camp for multi-generational enrollment, and a Counselor-in-Training (CIT) leadership program for grades 10-11. Pricing ranges from $1,850 (Mother-Daughter) to $5,310 (Classic), with deposits of $1,500-$2,300, monthly payment plans, and tiered sibling discounts.

The business operates a direct-to-consumer model: families register online through the CircuiTree platform, are nurtured via the website, Facebook, Instagram, and an alumni network coordinated by named family stewards, and receive ongoing engagement through the Bunk1 communication platform (daily photo uploads, Bunknotes, spending account management). Ancillary revenue streams include camp store sales, optional premium skill/trip fees (zipline, whitewater rafting, horseback riding), and airport transportation ($200 one-way at Asheville Regional). Each summer session accommodates approximately 110-140 campers, supported by roughly 50 counselors recruited from leading colleges, with ACA-accredited counselor-to-camper ratios (1:6 for ages 6-8, 1:8 for ages 9-14).

The company is independently operated with no disclosed external investment, parent company, or public listing. Ownership appears to involve the McKibbens family (evidenced by named alumni stewards Missy McKibbens Roper, Merridy McKibbens Sims, and Virginia McKibbens). Strategic technology and operational partnerships include CircuiTree (core registration/management SaaS), Bunk1 Rollcall (parent communication SaaS), and three regional adventure outfitters (Highlands Aerial Park, Chattooga River Whitewater Outfitters, Dillard House Stables). Camp Hollymont holds ACA accreditation and operates a peanut-aware, medically staffed environment emphasizing faith-based youth development.
