BRIEF CAMP DESCRIPTION: Camp Johnsonburg is a beloved New Jersey summer camp now in our 63rd year of operation. Unlike the corporate summer camps in the area, we are a local small business with local ties and community impact. Johnsonburg is a christian summer camp in the presbyterian tradition, and we welcome all.
CAMP INSTRUCTIONAL ACTIVITIES OFFERED:
Adventure, Waterfront/Aquatics, Fine Arts/Crafts, Music/Band, and more.
CAMP LOCATION: Located only ten minutes from the Hackettstown and Hope exits off of I-80, our 300+ acre site features rolling hills, tranquil forest, and a glacially-carved, spring-fed lake.
CAMP FACILITIES: Our private lake is a highlight, with paddleboards, inflatables to jump on, and clear water to swim in. We've got a pool as well, plus a towering high ropes course, 9 holes of disc golf, creative arts and crafts, and a whole lot more. Summer campers stay in updated rustic cabins or tent cabins.
CAMP PROGRAM INFO: Our summer camp program is defined by empathetic and well-trained counselors, tons of activities, and a small group model that allows kids to easily connect with each other and make new friends. All summer staff undergo a 2-week intensive summer camp training period, defined in part by the NJ summer camp safety act as well as our American Camping Association certification. Johnsonburg summer campers love our staff, and stay in touch long after camp is over.
CAMP LEADERSHIP CIT/LIT PROGRAMS: We have two Leadership Training Programs, which are not only fun and popular but prepare teens for early adulthood. Find out more info at our dedicated page for summer camp Leadership at:
