Pine Springs Traveling Day Camps

If you are looking for a great way to spend your summer days, consider coming to one of Pine Springs' Traveling Day Camps! Pine Springs Camp has been operating an excellent and accredited camping program since 1948 in Jennerstown, PA and we are excited to continue and expand our traveling day camp program! Your child will have an incredible outdoor experience with spiritual enrichment.
