Pennsylvania Overnight Summer Camp Trips: Camp Lohikan

Every summer we schedule camp trips to dynamite Amusement Parks and other exciting places of camper interest. In the past we've taken campers to: Dorney Park & the Wild Water Kingdom, Hershey Park, the Wayne County Fair, Cooperstown and the Baseball Hall of Fame, Montage Alpine and Water Slides, Rafting trips on the Delaware, Busch Gardens, Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown Festival Park in Virginia, Washington D.C., Virginia Beach, Boston, Toronto, Kings Dominion, Niagara Falls, Canada's Wonderland Amusement Park, the Ontario Science Center and a whole lot more!

Each 4 week session features an all-camp trip at a major Amusement Park. There are no extra charges for these trips. We hire a fleet of coach buses, pack up our campers and staff, and leave for the Amusement Park right after breakfast. Lunch and dinner are served in our reserved pavilion at the park. Campers entering the 6th grade and younger are supervised by 2 counselors assigned to the cabin group the entire day. Senior campers buddy-up and are supervised by our senior counselors and senior staff members who are located throughout the park. We also have mandatory check-in times at our pavilion. At the end of the day, the buses are loaded, and we depart for camp... hopefully in time to make curfew!

In addition to our All-Camp Trips (which are included in the tuition) every summer we schedule a 3-Day Trip in August to a site of educational as well as entertaining interest for our campers. This trip is optional and limited to 50 campers who are 11 years old and older.

This summer's 3-Day Trip is scheduled for early August, and we'll be heading to Niagara Falls and Toronto, Canada along with a stop at Canada's Wonderland Amusement Park. The itinerary is superb!

DAY 1: First we take an awesome boat tour of Niagara Falls on the world famous Maid of the Mist! Then we take a guided trip through the Cave of the Winds and a visit to Hurricane Deck ... and another look at the natural wonder!
Later that night we’ll celebrate our annual 3-Day Trip Pizza and Pool Party back at the hotel!

DAY 2: Canada’s Wonderland Amusement Park! - HERE WE COME! Rated as one of the BEST AMUSEMENT PARKS in the world - Canada’s Wonderland will not disappoint!!! We’ll spend the entire day in the Park. We’ll check out North America’s largest variety of roller coasters... over 65 rides including the Psyclone, Top Gun, the Fly, Cliffhanger, Skyrider and Drop Zone plus a ton of attractions! Canada’s Wonderland is DEFINITELY FUN!

DAY 3: A late breakfast is well deserved after a day in the park! After our morning brunch we’ll head over to the Ontario Science Center to explore dozens of amazing wonders. Check out the fascinating exhibits at http://www.ontariosciencecentre.ca/tour/default.asp.

Campers who register for Lohikan's optional Baseball Program will travel to the Lackawanna Stadium and catch the Triple A Scranton-Wilkes Barre Yankees Team in action throughout the summer. And, that's not all! We also have special trips reserved for campers who win cabin inspection, evening activity contests, cabin points competitions and weekly special events. Trips include: Jericho Ice Cream Parlor & Alice's Cow Palace Trips, Villa Como Pizza Parties, Montage Water Slide and Alpine Slide, White Water Rafting Trips, Cooperstown Baseball Hall of Fame Trips and those incredible edible Trips to Town!

Not enough traveling for you? Well, if you join one (or all) of our traveling Intercamp Game Teams, you'll get to visit at least a dozen of our neighboring summer camps. We have a very active intercamp games schedule and we're always searching for participants. You can join any of our teams at any time during the summer and playing time is guaranteed. So go for it!!!

Whether we call them Big Trips or Little Trips, I think it's clear that there's a lot happening at Camp Lohikan! So what do you say? Come on, join the gang and have FUN!
