The guiding principle of the sports program at both Susquehannock Camps is that every camper receives instruction in many different sports and that all are given the opportunity to practice those skills in game competition. Team assignments are made primarily in accordance with ability. This gives each boy or girl an opportunity to participate and enhance self-esteem in an environment where taking risks and making mistakes is an integral part of the learning experience.

In addition to most team and individual sports, campers can also pursue horseback riding, weight training, martial arts, mountain biking, archery, frisbee golf, nature study, Red Cross swimming, and a full range of boating activities.

Academic tutoring in a wide range of subjects is also available for students looking to get ahead in school or who may need to complete coursework over the summer.
