Summer Camp at Johnsonburg helps kids feel...

The pandemic has been hard on everyone, but most especially our kids. They've lost opportunities to grow. To experiment. To make new friends. To make memories without a care in the world. To trust themselves...other kids...and adults.

One answer...is summer camp!

Johnsonburg is the kind of place where your child won't even miss their phone. They'll meet new friends and learn new things about themselves. They'll try out experiences that they definitely can't get at home. They'll meet camp counselors that they'll remember forever. This is a place like nowhere else - and we're one of the best summer camps in New Jersey.

Some of our core values:

We must open our hearts and our doors to all people because every person is created in the image of God and has inherent value.

Racism and other attitudes of bias and hatred can be diminished by being in a community that welcomes all.

There is value in small groups within which individuals are welcomed and encouraged to express their uniqueness, and yet remain responsible for supporting the rights of others.

Emotionally and physically safe environments, guided by caring and trusted adults, are essential to healthy growth.

Time spent in a natural outdoor setting engenders a respect for nature, a commitment to stewardship, and awe in the presence of God’s creation.

What You Can Expect


Sending your child away from home to summer camp is a big deal. For 63 years, parents have been making summer for their kids extra amazing by sending them to Johnsonburg. Here's why:

Great Staff.

Our staff are carefully selected and intensively trained. They're college-aged role models that just love to be around kids. We make sure they know the latest on child and youth development, mental health care, and how to run activities safely and effectively. Some of them come from a totally different continent. Oh, and they're also very cool and extremely fun.

Our Program Rules.

We go hard on programming. To be honest, there's not really enough time in one week to do everything there is to do here. That's by design; we're never boring, especially since we add something new every single year. Lake toys, zip line, arial silks, gaga ball, pool basketball, disc golf, arts and crafts, climbing wall...sorry, we're running out of room.

We're Safe.

We're accredited by the American Camping Association, something only 20% of the camps in the entire country can say. This means we pass a rigorous visitation process, meeting over 300 standards that represent the best practices in the industry. This covers everything from fire extinguishers to the waterfront and even how we keep our data. We also have a great safety record, now 63 years strong.

Comfort & Care.

Our food is delicious with a boatload of options to win over even the pickiest of eaters. Our lodging is rustic by design, but well kept and comfy for the full summer camp experience. We have multiple medical personnel on site each week, as well as strong emotional health support. We are a great place for first time campers and kids afraid to leave home.
