Summer camp for 7th-8th & 9th graders 13-14-15 year olds near Chester Borough
Tamarack Day Camp’s Teen Travel Program is designed specifically for 7th, 8th, and 9th graders, typically ages 13 to 15. This program gives teens from Chester Borough and surrounding areas a mix of on-site camp activities and off-site day trips throughout the summer. On days at camp, participants follow a group schedule led by experienced counselors. They rotate through activities like swim periods, ropes courses, team sports, and creative workshops, encouraging social interaction and skill-building in a structured, supervised environment. On trip days, campers explore destinations across the region, giving them variety and independence within a safe, organized program.
The Teen Travel Program is built around clear safety standards that guide every off-site trip. Campers are expected to follow Tamarack Day Camp’s Travel Protocols at all times when away from camp. To ensure a shared understanding, both teens and their parents are required to sign a Teen Travel Behavior Contract before the summer begins. A dedicated Division Head oversees all aspects of the program, managing both on-site activities and travel days. Staff assigned to this program are specifically trained to supervise teens in public settings and to manage the social and behavioral needs that come with this age group. Families near Chester Borough can count on consistent supervision and structure throughout the summer.
