Camps are open to the entire community and are all inclusive as well, providing daily swim, lunch, snacks, towel service and access to transportation and extended care, so parents don’t have to worry about a thing.
During Family Fun Day, families can enjoy an afternoon of fun at Neil Klatskin Summer Camp activities including sports, dance, drama, art, science and technology, as well as face painting, balloon making, moon bounce and more. Participants will also get to meet camp directors, leaders and specialists, where they can become familiar with all the incredible summer opportunities the JCC offers for campers 3-14 years.
Camp offerings for the Neil Klatskin Day Camp (a traditional camp for ages 3-grade 2) includes Red Cross instructional swim and Hebrew immersion options. The Neil Klatskin Specialty Camps for Grade 3+ includes options in fine arts, science, Big Idea Hi-Tech, sports, dance and drama, Hebrew immersion and more. For those looking to fill the time between school and camp, and camp and school, there is also a wide selection of full-day mini-camp options in sports, dance, music and more.
Families who register at any NKDC camp or specialty camp at Family Fun Day will get $45 off per week and those who sign up for any camp for 4+ weeks will get $50 in JCC Cash. All attendees will be entered into a raffle to win one free week of camp. In addition, families who sign up for an annual JCC Family Membership at the event will also save $200. All offers are valid only during Family Fun Day, when tours will be offered from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
People who cannot make the event, but have questions about camp or public rates, or want to schedule a tour, can contact the camp office at 201-567-8963 or [email protected]. The camp office hours are Mon-Fri, 9 a.m.-5:30 p.m.
