Mission
Children’s Country Week Association is a youth development organization dedicated to serving the Delaware Valley region since 1875. We operate Paradise Farm Camps and are the proud stewards of 600 acres of scenic natural resources located within the heart of Chester County. Using our unique surroundings, we encourage children to open their eyes to the wonders of the outdoors and the possibilities of their own potential.
School Programs at Paradise Farm Camps provide hands-on outdoor learning and team building experiences for school groups throughout the Delaware Valley. Programs run from mid April through mid November.
The Day Camp is a traditional camp program designed to allow children to learn, grow, and have fun. Age appropriate programs serve children from 5 - 16 years old. Families can choose from 9 one-week sessions that run from June 18th - August 17th.
Throughout the year, we work with many social service agencies, scout groups and youth development organizations, to provide positive outdoor experiences for children of diverse backgrounds.

Winter News
Just as nature busily renews itself under winter’s idle guise, so we are busy at PFC every winter. Staff kicked off the year with scheduling and programming for Spring Break and Summer Day Camps, Outdoor Education School Trips, Residential Camp Partnerships and Volunteer Days.
Already, 2012 has seen partner organization meetings, staff interviews, camp fairs, tours and registration and updates to our property.
Buildings are being painted, roofs fixed and cabins are receiving new railings and landings.
2012 is shaping up to be a wonderful and busy year; we are so glad you are part of it!
