After a very looonnnggggg winter, here at Pittsburgh Mom Collective, we are ready to start thinking and planning our summer activities! While the last two years have been a roller coaster of a ride, we are so excited to once again offer this Summer Camp Resource for our area! Whether you are looking for day camps, overnight camps, art camps, music camps, STEM/science camps, sports camps, nature/outdoor camps and many more, we hope our post on Summer Camps helps you find the perfect camp for your child.
We know camps are still being cautious and working through the logistics of their 2022 Summer Camps so be sure to keep checking back for updates as we will be adding camps and sessions as the season grows!
{Organizations are listed as a paid advertising opportunity or other partnership. If you would like to have your camp added to this guide, please let us know via our contact form.}
Falcon Camp
Located only 80 miles west of Pittsburgh, Falcon Camp is widely recognized as Ohio’s premier summer camp. Falcon offers a beautiful lakefront setting, an extensive range of activities and a talented, experienced staff. The program includes horseback riding, sailing, swimming, mountain biking, canoeing, paddle boards, fishing, drama, video, photography, crafts, team sports, riflery, archery, nature, overnights, kayaking, tennis and much more. Boys and girls ages 6-16 are separate with planned coed events, and campers choose their own activities within a general framework.
Falcon has a strong reputation for making sure a camper’s first overnight experience is very positive. The non-competitive environment is inviting to new campers while our awards system challenges more experienced campers. The 1:4 staff/camper ratio allows individual instruction and attention. Most of all it’s great fun! ACA accredited since 1959 with many references available. Falcon is an outstanding opportunity for fun and learning where good things happen by design.
