Camp Overview
Since 1920, our traditional summer camps have been at the forefront of resident camping and have served as a summer home to hundreds of campers, staff, and alumni. We are passionate about the camping experience and value the history and traditions that continue to shape us. While we are one camp family, we are two separate summer camps in Pennsylvania. Camp Equinunk for Boys and Camp Blue Ridge for Girls are located just steps away from each other in the beautiful Pocono Mountains. We use the term "Brother-Sister" which perfectly describes our community and program, allowing "boys to be boys" and "girls to be girls." While our daytime programs are very much separate, we come together for evening activities, events, and special times for brothers and sisters, cousins and friends.We have made an incredible commitment to our camp families over the years, building state of the art facilities and hiring the best in staff, but more importantly, the thing we do best...is take care of children.
We often have our adventure/lifeguards arrive June 12th and everyone else on June 19th.
STAFF TIME OFF
One day off per week except the first and last week campers are in session. 3-4 nights off per week.
STAFF QUALITIES
Our staff need to be compassionate, confident, understanding, patient, friendly, mature and responsible. Good communicators with a strong work ethic, enthusiasm, drive and a flexible attitude. Experience working with children is a must!
