MONT ALTO, Pa. – In accordance with a university-wide decision regarding all Penn State summer camps, the Penn State Mont Alto athletic department has made the decision to move all its intended summer camps and clinics to the month of August. The decision to delay summer camps gives the University additional time to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic to ensure the health and safety of both campers and staff.
Camp fees that have already been collected will be honored at the later dates. For the campers and their families that have already signed up they will receive updated information regarding the intended camps or clinics.

Questions regarding any of the Mont Alto athletic camps or clinics can be directed to Frank Maira via email or a call at 717-749-6173.
