CAMP SUSQUE is located 16 miles north of Williamsport, PA nestled in the mountains of Central PA along scenic Lycoming Creek. PA State Forest and Game Lands creates a beautiful backdrop of nature with miles of mountain trails and sites for overnight camping. Camp Susque offers ADVENTURE WITH PURPOSE for young people ages 5-18.
ADVENTURE AT SUSQUE means sleeping in rustic cabins and tents (no electricity) where birds and frogs can be heard instead of traffic din and radio blare. It's bravely crawling out of a warm sleeping bag in time for morning roll call! Adventure is a hike up a mountain trail toward a jutting mass of rock overlooking miles of hill and valley! Or it could be maneuvering a canoe on Lycoming Creek. Or a sundown rendezvous with "indians" in ceremonial costume. Or maybe it's hearing God's Word brought forth by a qualified, gifted speaker at morning chapel or evening campfire. Adventure is nature's rugged beauty meeting the senses, an opportunity to enjoy God's creation and in that beauty to know the Creator!

Our Mission
- 1.Biblical Evangelism,
- 2.Strengthening the faith of young Christians, and
- 3.Developing a Christian World and Life view.
With this in mind and with the fact that many of the youth who attend our Camp have little knowledge of the aforementioned goals, the emphasis of our Christian teaching is mainly the basic Christian truths.
