We are Camp Ellie Mae & Camp Forge
Camp Ellie Mae & Camp Forge are dedicated to offering a carefree, fun environment for elementary & high school aged children!
About the Camp
In the summer of ’99, Miss Ellie Mae hosted a legendary week-long sleepover with two girls from church and her own daughters. Cue tee-shirt decorating, donut-eating contests, wild relay races, s’mores on a tiny coal grill, and the birth of the iconic Camp Ellie Mae song. Who knew that little week of fun would spark the camp we know and love today?
Camp Forge came along in 2025 because Mr. Ellie Mae (Miss Ellie Mae’s husband) retired and was ready to offer all that is Camp Ellie Mae to young boys (cuz’ Camp Ellie Mae is “no boys allowed” :o)
