DAY CAMP

Day Camp

Registration is open!

We are launching day camp at Pocono Plateau for 9 weeks this summer!

Pocono Plateau has provided overnight summer camp for over 75 years! In recent years, we have received many inquiries from local parents asking about whether we provide day camp. We understand the needs for childcare in our area has grown as the population here continues to expand. Our hope is to provide an affordable Christian day camp for local families where campers can explore outdoors, experience exciting adventures, make new friends, and learn about God through recreation and community. Parents and guardians can rest assured that the safety of our campers is our utmost priority. As an accredited camp through the American Camp Association, we follow over 300 standards and protocols meant to keep campers safe in a nurturing and supportive environment.
