Founded in 1946, Camp Taum Sauk has been owned and managed since 1958 by the Smith family who have applied their years of experience to developing a unique summer camp with a strong concern for safety with emphasis on individual attention. Occupying 145 acres along the Black River, Camp Taum Sauk accommodates 60 boys and 60 girls with cabins for the latter complete with bathrooms. With one mile of beach front, water sports of all kinds are a mainstay of the numerous, almost limitless, recreational activities at the camp and include boat regattas, canoe float trips, rafting, pontoon floats, sailing and kayaking.  Daily horseback rides are among the camp’s popular attractions. Spelunking, rock climbing, the high ropes challenge course, archery, riflery, arts and crafts and many other activities round out the summer activities.  Visit www.taumsauk.com and you’ll see why campers return to this wonderful children’s oasis, year after year.  Camp Taum Sauk ~ Creating memories with a lifetime guarantee.  Only 105 miles from St. Louis.
