At Chen-A-Wanda, we believe that the sleepaway camp experience should be enormously fun and exciting while providing a summer of growth and enrichment.  We recognize the importance of nurturing not only the physical but also the emotional well being of our campers.  It is our utmost priority to provide programs and activities that enable our campers

to have positive experiences during their summer at camp. 

We provide a safe, positive and nurturing environment that allows our campers to excel in various pursuits.  Additionally, we rely on our campers’ families, like you, to continuously communicate with us to ensure that the needs of your children are always being met.  In fact, some of our most popular programs and activities are the ones that our campers and their families have inspired us to add through the years. 

Our beautiful campus spans over 180 acres in the hills of Northeastern Pennsylvania. On our campus, campers participate in every land sport and activity imaginable.  Additionally, Chen-A-Wanda sits on pristine, temperate, Fiddle Lake. Our safe waterfront is staffed by certified lifeguards and offers our campers a diverse array of water sports and activities.

Our staff is experienced, friendly, positive, caring and skilled.  Most of our senior staff have been at Chen-A-Wanda for years and years.  As a result, our campers come to rely on the same smiling and encouraging faces, summer after summer.

Our program is both structured and elective, at the same time.  While much of our campers’ activities are determined by our program staff, campers are able to choose the activities that they wish to participate in two times a day.  We believe that our structured and elective program gives campers the “best of both worlds” by fostering independence within a traditional camp schedule and structure.

With all of the fantastic facilities, programs and activities that Chen-A-Wanda offers, we have no doubt that your child will have a memorable summer.  But even more memorable will be the friendships that your child makes.  Lifelong friendships are forged at Chen-A-Wanda each summer and this, more than any activity or offering, is what the “Chenny Life” is all about!!!
