We fundraise all year so we can continue to meet our mission! This helps us provide discounts of 60-80% for all camper families.
We offer four 2-week sessions of Day Camp, Monday - Friday, throughout the summer. There is an enrollment limit of 2 sessions (4 weeks total) per camper. Campers are provided with breakfast, lunch, and a snack each day. The Camp is divided into three co-ed villages, and each village is divided into smaller groups, based on age. Each has its own Counselor for the entire 2-week session.
While at Camp, your child will have the opportunity to participate in a variety of activities on our 235 acre property! We offer a mix of Environmental and traditional camp activities, such as...
In addition to our Award-Winning Biking Program, your child will get active with...
We also offer arts & crafts, cooking, drama, hayrides and many more.
We are always adding to our program, and no two summers are the same!
Day Camp is open to children ages 7-12. Daily transportation will be provided to select locations in Philadelphia, and varies based on your chosen session. Information regarding transportation can be found by visiting our Summer Camp Downloads page!

We provide all of our campers with nutritious meals that include vegetarian and gluten free options. Each day breakfast, lunch and snack is made fresh in our on-site kitchen facility and transported to Alumni Hall. We try as often as possible to source our ingredients from our garden or from the farm. We strive to provide delicious foods that everyone will enjoy but if your camper will not eat what is being served you can send an alternative meal. Please keep in mind that we are a peanut free facility.
Ensuring children have access to nutritious meals and snacks when school is not in session.
