Mercersburg Adventure Camps
blend a traditional residential
summer camp atmosphere with a
modern school setting, enhancing
the growth of every child’s
mind, body and spirit. Adventure
Camp’s unique structure features
a camper-to-counselor ratio of
3:1 and challenges campers aged
8-14 to grow and explore in a
positive and encouraging
environment. Campers find
enrichment adventures in
multimedia, visual arts,
performance arts, history, and
science. Campers discover
adventures on the fields and
courts as well, learning and
playing various individual and
team sports. Outdoor adventures
feature mountain biking,
canoeing, kayaking, rock
climbing, hiking and
orienteering, Civil War
battlefield excursions, and
horseback riding. Off campus
adventures and trips complete
the Adventure Camp experience.
For our youngest
campers, Mercersburg offers
Junior Adventure Camp for ages
7-8. Campers will experience our
enrichment, outdoors and
off-campus programs at an age
appropriate level. With caring
counselors and a kid friendly
environment, Junior Adventure
Camp is a great first sleep away
experience. Mercersburg also
offers Teen Adventure Camp for
ages 15-17. This program
features the same focus on
enriching and challenging
activities, good times, and
great counselors as Adventure
Camp. Tailored to teens and
their interests, Teen Adventure
Camp includes specialization in
enrichment areas, multiple
outdoor activities, sessions on
personal and social issues, and
good old-fashioned camp fun.
Mercersburg Academy's beautiful
campus serves as the base for
the Mercersburg Adventure Camps.
Located in south-central
Pennsylvania, rolling hills
encompass over 300 acres and
include expansive athletic
facilities, a working farm, and
wildlife habitat areas. A
nationally recognized secondary
school provides the ideal
setting for a wide range of
exciting opportunities in
learning, personal growth, and
fun. Mercersburg’s
state-of-the-art academic
facilities include a 62,000
