The Valley Forge Military Academy Summer Camp is part of the school's comprehensive program for providing campers with the very best in recreational and educational opportunities.
Each camper is taught the fundamentals of various sports to allow him/her to participate in team activities. It is the responsibility of the staff to assist the camper in developing skills that will give him/her great pleasure and confidence for every one of their achievements.

If your camper's conduct falls severely short, we will inform you of his/her misbehavior and may ask you for assistance. In most cases this will be a warning.
