Camp Ockanickon for Boys is a traditional overnight camp that provides a supportive environment for “boys to be boys” without the pressure of cliques and popularity contests often found in school and in the neighborhood.  At Ocky, the counselors create an atmosphere of inclusion, where it is okay for campers to come out of their shell and be themselves.  They sleep in rustic, open-air cabins and participate in activities with other campers from their age group.  Each cabin houses one or two counselors and 5 - 7 campers.  Each cabin group eats together in our Dining Hall where we serve our delicious meals family style.  The campers share the responsibility of setting and clearing the table and for going up to get second helpings for the table.  Campers follow a structured schedule that includes some activity periods that are already scheduled for their age group and some activity periods where they choose the activity themselves.
