SUMMER CAMP @ KINGDOM

Summer Camp - a week filled with epic riding on Vermont’s Kingdom Trails - is a place where student-athletes from across PA can gather, ride bikes, play in the woods, and build friendships while sharpening skills on the beautiful trails at Kingdom in Northern VT.

Participants stay in one of six dormitories and eat all meals together in the modern dining hall. The campus is ideally located just a short bike ride from “downtown” East Burke, VT, and surrounded by a network of over 100 miles of cross-country single track to explore. 

Camp staff is comprised of experienced and certified NICA coaches. 

We hope you’ll join us!

  • July 27 - August 2, 2025

  • We’ll be staying in the dorms at Burke Mountain Academy in East Burke, VT which is home to Olympic alpine hopefuls during the school year. We’ll be riding the amazing Kingdom Trail System.

  • The Trails at Kingdom are well maintained, purpose built, and safely within NICA risk management confines. The trails are quintessential east coast riding and the network is vast, providing variety.

    The New York and New Jersey NICA Leagues have camps at the same location every year.

  • All Level 2 and 3 Coaches with the addition of NICA’s camp training are eligible to coach. Priority for campers is given to those that have a parent and/or guardian who is willing and available to help.

    NOTES FOR COACHES:

    1) Coaches must be current and up to date with Coach Level 2 & 3 training and certifications by May 1st in order to participate.

    2) Coaches who choose to stay off-site are expected to fulfill all coach responsibilities over the course of the week and will be responsible for their own lodging & food for the week.
