Family Camp Option

Nervous about sending your child out of state? Attend our Family Camp and the entire family can build new healthy habits!

Oklahoma teens reap the benefits when they go to Camp Pocono Trails in PA for the summer. While parents often call us and ask for help in one particular area, such as gaming addiction, when they pick up their child they find that their child is different in several ways. Kids that may have been introverts have had many opportunities to make friends at Camp Pocono Trails. In today’s technology driven world teens can easily get caught up in a circle of feeling awkward and isolated, and this can result in self-esteem that is spiraling downward. At Camp Pocono Trails, they will come back to Oklahoma with more pride in their appearance. They may even go out on a limb and participate in a talent show or performance. This is the place where we break the negativity cycle and create healthy habits that last.
Oklahoma teens discover that it is a powerful message to children when their parents invest time and money to help them make healthy changes. Sending them to summer camp shows them that they are important and that you care about their future. This may sound ridiculous, of course all parents care about their kids, but in today’s world we cannot express it enough.

Social Support at Camp and Beyond

A unique program offering at Camp Pocono Trails gives your teen the social support they will need to become successful not only in the weight loss process but in the long-term maintenance routine needed for a lifetime of overall health and fitness.

Adolesccents, teens, and young adults that come to Camp Pocono Trails will leave with a social support system that they can rely on for years to come. Research demonstrates how social support from others trying to lose and maintain their weight loss is highly correlated with long-term success.

Campers reside in extremely comfortable quarters, with only 6-8 campers in each cabin, and are grouped according to age and length of stay. At our weight loss camp, campers and their new friends can play on teams together, face challenges of obstacle courses, overcome fears and help build one another’s confidence on a daily basis. With so many activities to choose from and 5 activity periods per day, there is an endless amount of fun to be had at Camp Pocono Trails!

Sometimes it’s just better to work on an issue away from family and friends. This is why we get so many campers from Oklahoma. The camp experience will be an adventure for your child and they will learn the skills they need for a lifetime of healthy living!

Many Oklahoma teens today report that they don’t have as strong of a social network or as deep of friendships as their parents and grandparents did, mostly because of our current use of social media. Social media networks allow us to have an artificial way of partaking in our acquaintances’ lives, liking their posts, commenting on photos, but not actually participating and showing true support.
Often at Camp Pocono Trails teens easily make friendships because they meet other kids who struggle with some of the same issues and feel the same way they do. It’s easier to break the ice when you aren’t the only shy kid, or the only one trying something new for the first time.
For parents of Oklahoma teens, watching your teenager struggle socially can be hard to watch. At Camp Pocono Trails, we can help them make friends and succeed in social situations. As parents, you can help put your teenager in places and situations where they have the opportunity to grow and meet other great kids. In the ideal situation at Camp Pocono Trails your teen will develop social skills and have the opportunity to work with licensed counselors and social workers. These professionals will teach them how to be socially successful and they will return to Oklahoma with increased self-esteem as well as new friends that they made at summer camp!
Not only are friends easy to make at camp but finding opportunities to shine abound at Camp Pocono Trails! We have Oklahoma teens participate in drama and improv activities specifically designed to get them out of their comfort zone. This builds muscle memory of in-person interactions and creates transferrable skills of socializing face-to-face as opposed to internet based socialization. Friday night dances are perfect opportunities for everyone to mingle and share success stories. We achieve our goals together and we celebrate our success together! It is no wonder that when parents pick up their teens they are delightfully overwhelmed by their beaming presence and self-confidence. Invest in a summer at Camp Pocono Trails and jump start your journey to a healthier, happier lifestyle!
