Pocono Plateau Camp & Retreat Center

Pocono Plateau Camp and Retreat is year-round Christian camp and retreat center located on 750 acres with two lakes in the beautiful Pocono Mountains of northeastern Pennsylvania. Our facilities are available year-round for retreats, day events, school field trips, and homeschool events. We also host a variety of summer camps for kids of all ages and welcome those in Barrett Township communities to join us for outdoor adventure and lasting memories! Summer Camp at Pocono Plateau is filled with adventure, nature, community, and Christian teaching. Pocono Plateau’s mission is to provide a space for children and youth to experience God’s love and presence in a Christian environment through fellowship, outdoor recreation, and challenge. Pocono Plateau offers both day and overnight camps.

We are committed to camp ministry because we believe it transforms lives, builds confidence, and shapes the faith formation of our children and youth. We welcome all campers just as they are, in a loving and accepting environment. Past campers return because of the strong communal bonds formed with other campers and staff and the recognition that something magical happens at camp.

OVERNIGHT CAMP

Overnight Camps programs vary by week, but all include bible discovery, team building, group activities like hiking, nature exploration, low ropes course (on the ground challenges), high ropes course (for older age groups), archery, crafts, nature study, and a variety of waterfront activities like swimming, fishing, and boating. Camps are divided up by grade with different activities and themes each week. Summer camper age groups generally are:

  • 4 – 7 years old: 2 or 3 Nights and Attend with a Grown Up
  • 1st – 3rd grade: Young Children’s 4 Night Camp
  • 3rd – 6th grade: Upper Elementary 5 Night Camp
  • 6th – 8th Grade: Junior High 5 Night Camp
  • 9th – 12th Grade: Senior High 5 Night Camp

 

DAY CAMP

Day Camp themes change weekly, and activities include bible discovery, swimming, fishing, boating, archery, crafts, pedal carts, music, and games. Older campers will do the climbing tower as well!
