Camp JCC: Camping by Day, Home for Dinner

Camp JCC is a summer day camp with both traditional and specialty camp options serving children entering pre-K through 10th grade. Counselors include educators and specialists in many fields who cultivate strong bonds, encourage team building, promote sportsmanship, and foster the individual development of each child. Daily activities, which include indoor and outdoor recreational and arts programs, celebrate Jewish culture, empower inclusivity, build meaningful relationships, and promote community values.
     Campers often engage with Israeli counselors in activities that celebrate Jewish traditions, holidays, and values. This may include learning Hebrew phrases, participating in Shabbat celebrations, and learning about Israeli history, food, and music. While Camp JCC has a Jewish cultural focus, children of all backgrounds and faiths are welcome, with the aim of creating a diverse and inclusive environment where campers learn from one another about different cultures and shared values.
     A variety of outdoor and recreational activities, such as swimming, sports, arts and crafts, hiking, music, and drama are offered. These activities promote physical fitness, creativity, and teamwork among campers. Educational elements are built into the programs, such as science experiments, nature exploration, and hands-on learning experiences. These activities are designed to stimulate curiosity and enhance campers’ academic skills.
      Camp JCC emphasizes building strong relationships and a sense of community among campers. Activities often focus on teamwork, cooperation, respect for others, and fostering lifelong friendships and connections. Campers learn important values like kindness, responsibility, compassion, and leadership through structured activities.
