CLA is a weeklong residential camp for middle and high school students ages 13-17. Participants will be immersed in Conservation activities at the beautiful and historic Lacawac Sanctuary and Field Station. Students will experience hands-on science programs along-side local conservation professionals and resident university researchers.  Enjoy a day kayaking the upper Delaware River, visiting a fish hatchery, assisting with bird banding, collecting water samples on Lake Wallenpaupack, analyzing samples in the lab, fishing, leadership activities, campfires and more. 
 
What Does Camp Cost?
Recognizing  that  families have  differing  abilities  to  pay, we  are  introducing  a voluntary  tiered pricing structure.  Rather  than  raise  prices  on  all  families,  tiered pricing  essentially  asks  families  with  greater financial  means to  consider  selecting  a  rate  the  more  closely  reflects  the  true cost  of camp.  
​
  • Tier A-  Subsidized-                                                                This tier is for families experiencing financial strain or hardship.  The additional expense is supported through  sponsors, donations and other fundraisers.  
  •  Tier B-  Direct  Cost-                                                                This tier more closely  reflects the direct costs of the specific expenses incurred during a camper’s week including food, housing, counselors, and program materials.
  •  Tier C-  True Cost-  For families who are financially able to pay the true cost  of camp including all aspects of  maintaining  facilities in good condition, insurance, utilities, and other expenses  necessary in operating Lacawac throughout  the  year. ​
