My son had the best time at these camps! By the end of the week, he made his own video game and learned to edit videos. He sometimes struggles to make friends in new environments, but by the end of the week, he was happily chatting away with other campers. Highly recommend!

I have 3 kiddos ages 7-13 and Lancaster Tech Camps have camps that match interests and age levels for all 3 of them. The prices are reasonable and the camps are run by awesome Hempfield teachers with high school students as helpers. Year after year they enjoy their camp experience!
