So Much to Celebrate with Camp Orchard Hill!

Despite a year of loss, Camp Orchard Hill is ready to celebrate with the Best Week Ever Summer Camps

By Camp Orchard Hill Team May 6, 2021

Our families and our communities experienced SO MANY losses in 2020.  Loss of precious loved ones, loss of holidays and traditions, and loss of our normal support system.  And our kids were forced to process their own set of losses!   Loss of friendships, loss of adventure, loss of confidence…and sometimes just the loss of someone to teach them long division!  The sum of the losses can be overwhelming! 

Here at Camp Orchard Hill – we’ve been counting up the losses with you!  And we’ve longed for kids to be back where they belong…playing, exploring, laughing….and thriving!!  We worked so hard to safely bring campers back to our grounds in 2020 – for 8 glorious weeks of Best Week Ever Day Camp.  It was SO worth it - and we’re longing for more this summer.  We can’t wait to see it and hear it all around us. Campers splashing in the pool, paddling through the lily pads, hitting that bullseye, giggling at skits and eating drippy ice pops with their friends.We’re planning now for more experiences, more skills and more adventures!  We’re SO excited to be talking about our summer programs and the light at the end of this crazy tunnel.  Registration is open and reservations are flowing in…and we have a sense of hope.  



We’re filled with hope that camp will be more than just a week of fun and games.  In 2021, we believe Best Week Ever summer camps will be an important place of healing…a chance to see the world with new eyes, celebrate the things that are truly important and redeem the losses!We’re celebrating the love in our families, the joy of friendship and true connection, the resilience of our community, and the strength of our faith.  It sure has been a year full of loss, but the BLOB and the GAGA courts are ready for 2021!  We’re waiting here to serve you and your kids…and when we’re finally back together at Best Week Ever…we choose to celebrate!  



We would be delighted to host your child at our Best Week Ever Day and Overnight camps this summer – for one week or ten weeks!  Check out all of our summer 2021 details at www.camporchardhill.com.  And contact us at (570) 333-4098 x100 to book one of our Spring Tour Dates!  We would love to celebrate with your family and your kids this summer!
