Friends’ Central Summer Programs runs a day camp on the Friends’ Central School campus in Penn Wynne, just off City Avenue. It earns 5 stars from 4 reviews. The Quaker school runs the camp itself rather than as part of a chain, and the staff includes teachers and students who know the grounds well. Kids name archery as a favorite. The swimming program draws specific praise for building real skills, and the tree-shaded campus keeps things bearable when the temperature climbs. Doors open weekdays from 8 AM to 4 PM through the summer.
