BEFORE THE TREES WERE CLEARED, BEFORE THE ROADS WERE PAVED, and long before the electrification of Shannon County, visionary St. Louis County school teachers Russell S. (Mac) and Margaret Boggs McMahan made the trek to this enchanted property and founded a summer youth camp in 1929. Naming it for Margaret’s mother, they called it Camp Zoe
The Friends of Camp Zoe is a membership-supported non-profit organization with the mission to preserve, support and promote the history of Camp Zoe (1929-1986) in Round Spring, Missouri.

As stewards of the history of the beloved summer camp, the Friends of Camp Zoe is dedicated to safeguarding the memories of the popular boys’ and girls’ camp by preserving its buildings and artifacts and sharing the stories of the camp experience with current and future generations.
