WE ARE THE BEST SUMMER CAMP!
Located in Lower Merion, Friends’ Central’s Summer Programs have something for everyone. Our rich and varied summer programs, filled with endless fun and excitement, are available to children ages 3 through grade 12. The same commitment to excellence that distinguishes Friends’ Central as an outstanding independent school in the Philadelphia region is also a central tenet of our summer programs. All of our summer programs are managed by Friends’ Central teachers who are invested in our school community and committed to providing a positive, enriching, and safe camp experience for every child.
My kids LOVE this camp! The counselors are wonderful with the children and the variety of activities offered is fantastic. My kids cry at the end of camp each year! They miss their counselors and camp friends and very much look forward to summer just for camp! Thanks for everything you do- keep up the wonderful work!
The children always have a positive experience. The multitude of activity options keep the children interested and engaged. Our children look forward to attending camp each summer. Who doesn’t go to FCS? They’re missing out!
Not just a summer camp!
Friends’ Central School is recognized for its friendly, welcoming atmosphere and the positive interactions between children and faculty. These characteristics, as well as fair play, acceptance, and respect for the individual, are emphasized in our summer programs. All summer employees are oriented in and guided by the Quaker practices for which the school is known.
