Every day at Summerstock VTC is a new adventure! From Dance Party Breakfasts to evening Karaoke Nights and everything in between including: Intensive Rehearsals, Specialized Workshops, Scrumptious Meals, Swimming, Boating, Hiking, Low & High Ropes, Zip Lining, Beach Parties, S’mores and Campfires! It’s like a party that NEVER STOPS! It’s so much fun, sometimes they forget just how much they are learning along the way!

Our host camp, Camp Vacamas is situated on 230 wooded acres of private land, surrounded by New Jersey’s 4,500-acre Norvin Green State Forest, with a private spring-fed 40-acre lake for swimming, canoeing, and fishing. Participants, nestled in the foothills of the Ramapo Mountains in Northwest New Jersey, have the feeling of being in the wilderness. Camp is conveniently located on the border of Bloomingdale and West Milford, less than one mile from Hamburg Turnpike and Route 23. This ideal location provides our attendees with recluse and privacy to focus on creating magic!
