Vacation Camps

No School? No Problem!

What are Camp Days? Join us for a full day of Jewish-camp-style fun when school is out for holidays and school vacations! Our energetic teachers pack each day with opportunities for learning, growth, friendship, and sheer joy. Your child will participate in scavenger hunts, create art projects, practice yoga, learn Hebrew vocabulary, explore the outdoors, do fun science experiments, cook delicious Jewish food, and so much more – all through a Jewish lens.
