Camp Jill Scott is a free one-week day camp operated on 10 acres of outdoor bliss at Cherokee Day Camp. Students are provided with transportation from the Cecil B. Moore Recreation Center to camp and back each day. Camp is held from 9:00am to 4:00pm and students enjoy art, music, swimming, rock wall climbing, field games, scavenger hunts, and leadership development. Special invited guests provide 45-minute sessions were students are engaged in art, music, health, financial responsibility, and basic environmental awareness training during the week. Past guests have included visual artist Rah Crawford, singer and songwriter Carol Riddick, and Phoebe Coles from Keep Philadelphia Beautiful. At our closing program school supplies are distributed and students are encouraged to commit to pursue academic excellence during the upcoming school year.
