Day Camp
For 15 years, Woodcrest Retreat has been voted a winner for “Best Day Camp” in Lancaster Newspaper Reader’s Choice Awards!
Parents! Have you searched tirelessly for a fun and engaging place for your child(ren) to spend a week or more of their summer? Woodcrest is a safe place where you can confidently leave your child each morning knowing they are valued, loved, and cared for by staff.
The Discovery program is for ages 6-11 while the Trekkers program is for ages 12-14. Both provide a place to learn and grow here on the Ephrata Mountain. These programs are full of adventure and excitement and include plenty of outdoor activities, games, crafts, Bible lessons and water fun.
Children are grouped with other similar ages and guided by caring and trained counselors.

Camp themes, games, crafts, nature lessons, and Bible lessons are different each week.
