Our Vision

The vision of Camp Crystal Lake is to be a place where individuals learn to be the best version of themselves.

Our Mission

The mission of Camp Crystal Lake is to facilitate social, emotional, and intellectual growth of individuals within an outdoor community

Since 1948...

Camp Crystal Lake has served generations of Alachua County students through outdoor education programs and traditional summer camp experiences.

Owned and operated by the School Board of Alachua County, Camp Crystal Lake is located on 140 wooded acres in north central Florida.  Our three sparkling lakes, natural Florida ecosystems, and updated and historic facilities, serve as the backdrop for decades of treasured memories.

In everything we do, we strive to create a positive environment that is safe, fun, and rewarding. We are proud our engaging programs, our legacy of service to Alachua County families, and our commitment to the youth of today.
