All New Junior Sports Camp!
For Children in Grades 2nd -4th
Meet new friends in a friendly environment while trying a number of different sports. We offer an action-packed week, where
children will leave feeling great about their camp experience.
Junior sports camp concentrates on improving skills, endurance and continuous learning. Some of the sports that will be featured are: basketball, baseball, flag football, soccer, floor hockey, and others.
Personal attention is ensured by JCC’s (1:4) camper/counselor
ratio, while our emphasis on skill development and participation over competition gives campers a chance to succeed, to build self-confidence, and to grow at their own pace.
In the morning the campers will participate in sports instruction and after lunch they will join regular day camp activities.
RUACH & GADOL: Grades 4 - 8
In addition to all the activities listed above, Ruach & Gadol campers enjoy extended days at camp and day-long trips like amusement parks, baseball games, roller-skating, DJ Parties, Game Show Mania, and more!
