Tomorrow, you will inevitably be hearing about your child’s “best friends.” It’s hard to believe, especially for some of our first year campers that in just four weeks a “best friend” can be made. The truth is when you live with someone, sleep next to someone, play with someone, 24 hours a day, seven days […]
Judging by the smiles and stuffed animals they brought back on the buses with them, our campers had quite a day at Dorney Park! It was a picture perfect day for a trip to an amusement park. Most of camp went to Dorney while the oldest Seniors and Greeks headed to Hershey Park for the […]
Today was National Camp Kindness Day. We believe kindness is something we lean into every day here at Camp Green Lane, but today is a day when camps across America take time to practice intentional kindness. Camp Kindness Day was created in collaboration with the American Camping Association in 2018. Here at CGL, that means the Canteen is transformed on […]
What a day this was! Today was quite an eventful day in (and out) of Camp Green Lane! Immediately after breakfast, in order to beat some of today’s heat, we played a series of intercamp games against Camp Nock-a-Mixon. Our girls traveled to their camp and we welcomed boys teams competing at various age groups. […]

Earlier in the day, the boys had Clinic and the girls went to Elective and Clinic in the afternoon. Inter Boys had Cooking and Pickleball, Arts and Crafts and Flag Football. They […]

What would you do if you could only spend a day at camp? What would you do at Camp Green Lane, given only a few hours between the arches? Today was Rookie Day, and for dozens of little boys and girls, it’s their first CGL experience. It’s their first chance to see what camp is all […]
We’re all still feeling Olympics a little bit. Maybe it was all the cheering or all the fun events, but we got a chance to recharge our batteries this morning with a 10:00 breakfast. The late wake-up was a nice change of pace after yesterday’s Olympics, which is the single-most exciting day of the summer. Today we […]
Today was Olympics, one of the single most exciting days of the summer. For our Olympics, we split the entire camp into four teams. This year, the teams represented the four food groups with Dairy, Fruit, Meat and Veggies competing in a series of activities to determine a winner for the day. Olympics is a Camp Green […]
It’s a rite of passage at Camp Green Lane to serve in the Dining Hall. The boys do it, the girls do it, and we told you a few days ago about the special summers spent as CGL Greeks. But every summer when they leave camp for their trip, the job of serving breakfast, lunch […]
