Camp Walter Johnson 
Since 1974, Camp Walter Johnson has touched the lives of 55,000 + underprivileged children and it all started with an interesting story and a generous donation.
This Salvation Army Camp began with a generous land donation from a local Denton, N. C. resident, Walter Johnson. He gave The Salvation Army 143 acres and an additional piece of real estate which was sold for $650,000. These funds helped finance the initial construction of the camp.
Camp Walter Johnson is administered by The Salvation Army North & South Carolina Divisional Headquarters, in Charlotte, NC.
