About US
Camp Cadet is a week long summer camp for boys and girls from Pennsylvania between the ages of 12 to 14
The camp focuses on discipline, self-esteem, teamwork, drug and alcohol education, violence prevention and many other issues facing today's youth.
The goal of Camp Cadet is to introduce participants to the diverse criminal justice system and establish a positive relationship with law enforcement personnel.
Camp Cadet is structured similar to the training at the State Police Academy. All participants who attend Camp Cadet are addressed as "Cadet" during the week.
Cadets are required to participate in ALL scheduled events!
