Introducing Technology Addiction Track for California Teens!
If your California teen went off to college today would they be able to manage their phone and social networking with the rigorous demands of college? Get them to quick tap, tap, tapping on their phones and send them to the healthy environment of Camp Pocono Trails. In this beautiful natural setting, among their peers and new friends, your teen can explore the issues around technology addiction. The Summerland Program is the first program uniquely designed for teens to kick bad technology habits and adopt healthy habits.
With the Summerland Program at Camp Pocono Trails your teen will have support to break the habit of over-using technology. This is why you should intervene and send them to our summer camp. According to Business Insider, 2017 over 53% of college age campers across the nation use technology to procrastinate instead of doing academic work. A startling statistic is that 30% of freshman in U.S. colleges are dropping out due to an inability to handle unstructured time. Sadly, 51% of lower-skilled men in their 20’s live with their parent or close relative and report spending 75% of their leisure time playing video games.
At Camp Pocono Trails, California teens can discover new activities in a supportive environment that can replace the old technology driven behaviors. Jump-start a successful college career with the support of Camp Pocono Trails!
Check out our Optional Weight Loss Family Camp
The best advantage of attending our weight loss family camp is that everyone leaves on the same page. There is no miscommunication about what is on program or off program as parents and children alike receive the same nutrition, fitness, and culinary instruction.
Research has shown that family involvement such as offered at our weight loss family camp can produce better results than sending your child to camp alone. One meta-analysis that was published in the International Journal of Obesity and Related Metabolic Disorders looked at over 20 research articles on family involvement in weight loss.
It was found that beneficial effects were seen when interventions were taught to both parents and children alike across multiple research studies. Benefits were seen in both parents and children when weight loss interventions are implemented as a family versus just implemented by the parents or child alone. In other words, you will see greater results in your own weight loss and your child will see greater results with their individual weight loss then you would if either of you attended a weight loss program individually.
Adolescent, Teen and Young Adult Health and Fitness Camp
Welcome to Camp Pocono Trails, the leading health and fitness camp anywhere. Health and fitness are more important than ever for adolescents, teens, and young adults. As recently as even 30 years ago, health and fitness wasn’t a major concern for most young people. If you look at photos and movies from the ’70s and earlier, most people were reasonably fit.
Why We Need a Health and Fitness Camp
Today, unhealthy food choices are everywhere and serving sizes have expanded greater than ever before. Take Coca-Cola for example, where the only serving size used to be a meager 6 oz.
Today, we can go to a McDonald’s fast-food restaurant and order a small Coke which is 12 oz, double the size of the largest and only size of Coke back in the 50s. It is easy to see that the food industry has tapped into the fact that we are naturally attracted to salt, fat, and sweets. Because the cost of a large order of fries over a small order of fries is mere pennies for the manufacturer, they are incentivized to give us more unhealthy food to create profits. It may seem like a good deal to “super-size” your fast food order for mere pocket change, but how good of deal are you really getting when that high-caloric density food causes health problems?
Screen Time Adds to Need for Increased Health and Fitness
Our society is now faced with the notion of unlimited screen time. Even as recently as in the 1980s, most TV stations shut off at night. Now, adolescents and teens get unlimited TV around the clock, not to mention internet access which never goes dark.
When you combine an abundance of unhealthy foods available, larger than life portion sizes, along with limitless screen time- it’s a recipe for disaster.
