The story of Tranquility Camp begins in 1926 when Garden State Academy (GSA) was founded. It continued to be an Adventist institution belonging to the New Jersey Conference of SDA for over 75 years. After closing, GSA became Tranquility Camp  (formerly known as Tranquil Valley Retreat) Center located in Sussex County New Jersey; 'Where people and nature come together'.
