Camp Nocatee

Camp Nocatee in Hendry County exemplifies its “peaceful river” name with ancient waters that are integral to the surrounding rich agricultural lands. Known for the black soil that produces most of the sugar for the United States, this camp desperately needs enhanced security, pavilions, and roof replacements.
