Overnight Camp for Ages 11-15
There's no experience like an overnight camping experience! Campers will learn camping and naturalist skills and engage in teamwork and independence while exploring the great outdoors.
Join us for a memorable camping adventure at Ricketts Glen State Park! Campers come to Briar Bush on Monday, sleep at home, then stay overnight Tuesday-Friday. There’s so much to do, we can’t list it all: safe camping skills, night hikes, creek walks, waterfalls, swimming, songs, s’mores around the campfire, and more. Look forward to a week immersed in nature, teamwork, and self-reliance!
*Overnight Camp was originally advertised as taking place at Hickory Run State Park. However, due to scheduled construction at the Organized Group Tenting Area, Overnight Camp will now be taking place at Ricketts Glen State Park.
Monday: 9:30am-4:00pm; Tuesday: 9:30am-Overnight; Wednesday-Thursday: Overnight; Friday: 4:00pm Pick-Up
