New to finding us? START HERE- This video provides a good introduction to who and what Camp Concepts is all about.

Selecting a summer camp program can be a challenge. Bucks County has so many choices to choose from. We believe the real value of camp extends far beyond the program or even the fun that can be had. For us, the true value of camp is the social & emotional learning that takes place. Take a minute and read this article so you have a better understanding of our fundamental approach to camp.

Big Oak Day Camp is a summer day camp owned and operated by career teachers that provide programming for children ages 6-14. Our distinctions is that we are educator owned and operated and have earned a reputation for creating a strong community environment where each camper is a known and valued and member. The mark of a great summer day camp includes dedicated professionals experienced in caring for children, having a diverse program of games and activities, and of course an enthusiastic collection of campers!

Our experience is significant. Our administrative team has more than 230 years of combined teaching and camp leadership experience. We proudly put that up against any day camp in PA or the entire United States. Your child’s Big Oak experience is about feeling like a deeply connected member in our camp community.

Our program of activities is diverse. Aided by our professional experience as Physical Education teachers, we have many classic camp games such as GaGa, Capture the Flag, four square, tennis and pickleball, as well as team challenge games. We also have some ultra-unique games like Tchoukball, BBK, Jurassic Park and more. We believe games and activities are meant to be fun but also used as an avenue to build self-confidence, friendships, and trust in self & others.

We are very proud of our success having been recognized as a Best in Bucks category winner as well as multi-year 'Best in Yardley' winner. We look forward to welcoming your child and family into our camp family.

Groupings - At Big Oak, we create co-ed groups based on grade levels to ensure every camper feels included and engaged with their peer grade group. Our two main divisions are Junior Camp (for kids entering grades 1-5) and the Senior Teen camp (for those entering grades 6-9).

A dedicated Lead Counselor guides each group, supported by an Associate Counselor (AC), Junior Counselor (JC), and/or a Counselor-In-Training (CIT). To ensure top-notch experiences, our Activity Leaders- many of whom are career teachers) faciliate the games & activities. This allows our counseling staff to focus on meaningful camper interactions, group managment, and to help maximize the fun.

LUNCH-One of the highlights of our summer camps is the delicious lunch we provide to every camper. Prepared fresh on-stie by our telented kitchen team, each campers enjoys a choice of hot or cold entrees, along with salad bar, fresh fruit, and dessert.
