Camp Alvernia began in 1888 as an all-boys resident camp, and continued that way for over 100 years. Now as a day camp for boys and girls, we've paid special attention to maintaining the culture and feel of an old-fashioned resident camp, with the proximity and convenience of a day camp! With a strong culture of respect, wonderful staff who love children, and 15 beautiful wooded acres set on Centerport Harbor, Camp Alvernia is the perfect place for boys and girls to grow.
