Summer Camps at Delaware County Community College Cover Diverse Interests, with Scholarships Available

Children enjoy hands-on cooking activities at Delaware County Community College’s Summer Kids Camps, offering a wide range of fun and educational programs for ages 6 through 14.

From Artificial Intelligence Designing and Developing to Art Workshops, from Babysitter Training with CPR to Cooking and Baking, to Model United Nations and Python Programming, there is something to appeal to almost any child or young teen’s interest at Summer Kids Camps at Delaware County Community College.

The camps are for kids ages six through 14 and will run from Monday through Thursday, June 15 through July 30, except for Week 1, which will run from Monday through Wednesday only.

Most camp offerings are held at the College’s Marple Campus (901 S. Media Line Road, Media), with limited weeks available at the Downingtown Center (100 Bond Road, Downingtown) and the Southeast Center (409 N. Lansdowne Ave, Drexel Hill).

Please note: Full-week registration is required (no partial week options). All camps are based on enrollment. Proof of age may be required, and no exceptions are made. Schedules and hours range for the camps, but children have the option to stay all day for an additional fee (campers must bring their own lunches). For more information on camp schedules and to register, call 610-359-5025 or visit the Summer Kids Camps page here. The College has held Summer Kids Camps for more than 18 years and youth programs since 1996.

Unemployed caregivers in Delaware County can apply for up to $1,000 in credits toward a child’s summer camp fees thanks to the Delaware County Council’s approval of the Delco Strong Summer Camp Solution. The program helps reduce barriers experienced by caregivers who are struggling to find work, a situation made more challenging by the summer closure of schools and the difficulty in finding adequate childcare. Applications for the Delco Strong grant scholarships can be found here.

Limited camp scholarships are also available through the Delaware County Workforce Development Board. The scholarships are designed to enable middle school-age students to develop skills in some of Pennsylvania’s high-priority occupations. Many of the Summer Kids Camps at DCCC qualify for this scholarship. To find out more about this grant and to apply, contact [email protected]
