Registration For 2019 Radnor Day Camp Open Now

RADNOR TOWNSHIP, PA – Registration for Radnor Township's annual summer camp is open now, and residents and non-residents can sign up.

The six-week summer camp is held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. — or 9 a.m. to noon for half-day campers — June 24 through Aug. 3 at Radnor Elementary School.

Traditional campers are in first through sixth grades.

Transportation will be provided to and from camp for all Radnor residents who are registered as full-day campers. Half-day campers are provided transportation to camp, but must be picked up at camp at 12:30 p.m.

Activities include arts and crafts, sports, games, swimming, performing arts, field trips, and special events. Field trips and special lunch days are optional and require additional fees.

The activity schedules change on a weekly basis.

Kids in seventh through ninth grades can join the Leader In Training (LIT) program at the camp.

The program gives them the opportunity to be mentored by camp staff to learn the basic camp operations as well as the leadership skills and responsibility necessary to assist in the supervision of the younger campers.

Interested LIT campers must:

• provide a letter of recommendation from someone unrelated to the camper (i.e, a coach, a teacher);
• provide a letter of interest written by the camper;
• attend a brief presentation at Back to Camp Night;
• and interested LIT campers will not be guaranteed a spot in the LIT program until their letter of recommendation and letter of interest are received.

Learn more about the LIT program online here.

Those interested in the LIT program can submit letters to Program Supervisor Heather DiCanzio hdicanzio@radnor.org or mail to Radnor Township, 301 Iven Ave., Wayne PA 19087.
