Camp Life

Join our vibrant camp community where creativity thrives …

In the studios
Campers explore the visual arts under the guidance of master artists, experimenting with techniques in professionally equipped, air-conditioned ceramics, painting, woodworking and printmaking studios.

On the stage

Throughout the summer, campers and counselors share stories, songs, scenes, music and dance at our frequent “noon-time performances.” Each 4-week session includes a full-scale musical integrating acting, singing, dance and costume and set design. Professional directors, choreographers and musicians guide campers and CITs in high-quality performances. Offstage, campers have opportunities to interact with and learn from visiting performers.

In our pools and on our fields

Campers stay active and fit using the JCC’s gyms, playing fields, hiking trails, and indoor and outdoor pools. All groups are offered both recreational swim and lessons. Our sports and recreation specialists lead non-competitive team activities that emphasize teamwork, good sportsmanship and fun.

For the larger community

Campers choose worthwhile causes and plan events to raise awareness and funds for a variety of causes—working together and using their skills and talents to make a difference.

At Arts Nite

Each four-week session culminates in a special evening dedicated to highlighting our campers’ talents and accomplishments. Arts Nite features a fully staged musical production and campers’ artistic creations are displayed throughout the JCC in a major multimedia exhibition.
