“We know that camp can provide a welcome alternative from screens and social media. When our campers unplug, this translates to boating, swimming, and playing in nature; cooking, climbing, or trying a new sport; strengthening social skills, and building self-confidence and independence,” explains MJCCA Days Camps Director Jodi Sonenshine. “We can’t wait for this camp season, and look forward to another wonderful summer, filled with fun, friends, and adventure!”

MJCCA Day Camp Highlights
- MJCCA Day Camps is thrilled to announce that we’ve earned accreditation by theAmerican Camp Association (ACA). ACA collaborates with experts from the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Red Cross, and other youth-serving agencies to assure that current practices at camps reflect the most up-to-date, research-based standards in camp operation. ACA accreditation is the best evidence parents have of a camp’s commitment to a safe and nurturing environment for their children.

You can sign your child up for this program when you register online for camp. The Before-Camp Care Reading Program is the same price as Before-Camp Care ($35 per camper, per week).

Our Shlichim (emissaries) will then place them at the real Western Wall in Jerusalem when they return to Israel after the camp season.
