General Information
Camp Cheatham Hill is a privately owned business and carries its own insurance policies. Camp Cheatham Hill is not affiliated with Cheatham Hill Elementary School or Cobb County School District.

Camp Cheatham Hill runs consecutively during the summer months of June and July (start and end dates vary based on the Cobb County School District Calendar).

Any Elementary aged child (rising kindergarten through exiting 5th grade) is welcome to attend our camp.
There is a $35 non-refundable registration fee. The registration fee is annual and must be paid on or before the first day your child attends camp for the summer session. ALL campers are required to pay this fee. Camp registration forms are available on this website. You may turn in the registration forms and fee the first day your child attends camp (they are not required to be sent ahead of time). We have space available and overstaff to accommodate any amount of campers!

Summer Camp will be held at Smitha Middle School (Monday through Thursday). Camp is closed on Fridays during the summer season due to the fact that Cobb County School District operates on a 4-day work week during the summer months.
