Camp Canadensis
A lake, two pools and a multi-room arts center leave a full summer to explore interests in depth.
Canadensis is a coed residential camp in Pennsylvania’s Poconos, centered on private Lake Lenape. Sports, water, outdoor adventure and arts share the daily schedule, with more electives for older grades. Campers completing grades 2–5 have one daily elective, and grades 6–9 have two. They can keep an interest across the summer or change weekly, making it a good fit for a longer stay with a consistent peer group.
