Buildings and structures in Wayne County, PennsylvaniaPocono Mountains

Camp Watonka was a residential summer camp for boys aged seven to sixteen in Wayne County, Pennsylvania from 1963 to 2019. It was the only science camp for boys accredited by the American Camp Association in the United States. Accommodation was in traditional cabins with modern bathrooms and electricity. Campers could stay for two, four, six or eight weeks. It was one of many summer camps in The Poconos. Field trips to the Appalachian Trail for hiking and mountain biking and to the Delaware River for tubing and kayaking were scheduled each summer. The former site of the camp has been repurposed as an outdoor facility called Watonka Outdoor. Science is not a focus of the new venture.
