Child Wellness is Everything!

Child Wellness at Camp

At JPH at Ferry Hill, we believe the outdoors is the perfect backdrop for a fun and enriching summer. Campers will enjoy swimming lessons in our pool, where they can build confidence and enhance their skills while making lasting memories together. The natural setting surrounding the camp creates an inviting atmosphere that encourages kids to relax and enjoy their time outside.


Throughout the camp, children will take part in guided nature walks that seamlessly blend into their daily adventures, allowing them to appreciate the stunning surroundings as they explore. This environment enhances the experience, offering campers a chance to engage in thoughtful conversations and forge new friendships while enjoying the beauty of the outdoors.


Our 7 week program offers a theme each week for the children to enjoy. We incorporate mindful skill practices designed to promote relaxation and self-awareness, allowing campers to unwind and connect with themselves amidst the tranquility of nature throughout the week. Our therapeutic art sessions provide a creative outlet for self-expression, enabling children to explore their thoughts and feelings through various art mediums in a relaxed, natural setting.


Additionally, campers will participate in a variety of outdoor games and team-building activities that encourage social interaction and cooperation. The natural landscape provides an exciting arena for friendly competition, teamwork, and plenty of laughter, creating a sense of camaraderie among participants.


At JPH at Ferry Hill, we focus on nurturing the whole child—physically, emotionally, and socially—through engaging activities set in a vibrant outdoor environment. Our dedicated staff is committed to creating a safe and welcoming space where every child can thrive and feel valued.

Celebrate 60 years of tradition with us by giving your child the gift of a summer filled with adventure, creativity, and the joy of being outdoors at JPH at Ferry Hill!
