Saint Tikhon’s Summer Camp is an enriching one-week sleep-away camp designed for Orthodox Christian children aged 7 to 17. Held annually during the first week of July on the scenic grounds of Saint Tikhon’s Monastery and Seminary, the camp is a self-supporting program of the Diocese of Philadelphia and Eastern Pennsylvania of the Orthodox Church in America.
Campers experience a dynamic religious education program that includes daily church services, as well as a variety of outdoor recreational activities that foster community and lasting friendships.
