Club Activities
Camp Sertoma
Camp Sertoma, founded in 1969, currently hosts 40 children a week for 6 weeks totaling 240 campers throughout the summer. The camp is located at the 17,000 acre Outdoor Lab on the Clemson University Campus (that's 26.5625 square miles!). The camp focuses on providing an amazing opportunity for children ages 7-13 years old with hearing impairment, speech impediments, or from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.
Anderson Sertoma Club sponsors 40 children to attend camp this summer with the remaining 200 children sponsored from the 30 Sertoma clubs located around the State of South Carolina. During the Camp's history, it has hosted over 10,000 children from across the State that has had a meaningful and lasting impact on generations of South Carolinians.
Camp Sertoma is our club's main focus to raise money throughout the year from our activities and fundraising efforts to send children to the camp throughout the summer.
