Traditional Camps<br />
Juniors R Grades K-3<br />
$220 per week ($190 JCC members)<br />
Seniors R Grades 4-8<br />
$245 per week ($215 JCC members)<br />
Traditional Camp is jam-packed with fun for<br />
campers of all ages! Campers are grouped<br />
based on grade and rotate between<br />
traditional camp activities with their peers<br />
and counselors. Activities typically include<br />
arts and crafts, recreation, music, science,<br />
cooking, nature, drama and WaterZone.<br />
Special events and field trips round out<br />
the summer to provide a comprehensive<br />
camp program where campers gain new<br />
experiences and build lasting friendships.<br />
Sports R Grades K-3<br />
$240 per week ($210 JCC members)<br />
Sports Camp is our special sports<br />
elective program for younger campers<br />
seeking an active, athletic experience at<br />
camp. Coaches provide instruction and<br />
challenge campers through drills and<br />
scrimmages in a variety of sports such<br />
as basketball, hockey, baseball, kickball,<br />
soccer, volleyball, and more. Campers<br />
are grouped based on grade and skill<br />
level to ensure fair play and appropriate<br />
instruction.<br />
Campers choose a specialty activity on<br />
Monday morning, and spend half of each<br />
day that week immersed in that program<br />
area. This gives our older campers a chance<br />
to choose the program they like, and have<br />
more time to explore that area of interest.<br />
There are always multiple elective track<br />
options, and they may vary from week to<br />
week. A sports elective will be offered<br />
every week. Other elective options<br />
may include: cooking, improv, drama,<br />
photography, music, art, fitness.<br />
Senior campers also go on two field trips<br />
per week, specially geared toward older<br />
campers. Check out our week-by-week<br />
breakdown on Page 13 to see all the<br />
exciting stuff we have planned for this<br />
summer!<br />
Campers in grades 6-8 also participate in<br />
our Leadership Development Program. This<br />
special program provides opportunities for<br />
experiential learning, community service,<br />
and building leadership skills.<br />
Fourth of July Week<br />
All Camp J programs are closed<br />
Wednesday, July 4, but we’re adding<br />
extra fun with a camper late-stay. Junior<br />
campers will go to Legoland on Thursday<br />
followed by a cook-out at the JCC. Senior<br />
campers will spend a full day at Busch<br />
Gardens on Tuesday and return<br />
in the evening.<br />
