Welcome to Camp Pocono Trails!

Our commitment to helping kids and teens lose weight takes another big step at Camp Pocono Trails. We have created a blog to share success of stories of past campers, information about our summer weight loss camp, and healthy diet and fitness tips that can be used year round.

You may have seen our camp featured on MTV’s hit ‘Return to Fat Camp’. We had a blast working with MTV but the kids are the reason we’re in business. The show may have labeled us as a fat camp but we consider ourselves a healthy fitness camp where kids have fun, lose weight, and gain self esteem.

Our on-site director, Tony Sparber, founded New Image Camps with his wife, Dale, in 1991. Tony’s combination of discipline and compassion has helped thousands of kids and teens fight the battle against obesity. Helping kids achieve their potential by learning healthy lifestyle choices and gaining self esteem is Tony’s lifelong commitment.

Stay tuned for valuable tips, camp information, and guest blog posts from some of our past guests and Tony himself!
