March 19, 2018

Dear KidsOutAndAbout readers:

Welcome to our Summer Camp Newsletter for 2018. This newsletter will give you a chance to browse through all kinds of camps, subject by subject.

Of course, because most of you search for summer camps by available week,  you should also click right on through to our Week by Week Guide to Summer Camps 2018. But the camps listed below are fun to read about—there are so many more unusual camps than we had when we were young! Amazing what our kids can do and learn these days.

I hope you enjoy this special edition of our newsletter, and that you forward it to your friends who may also be shopping for summer camps! We'll be back with your regularly-scheduled newsletter on Thursday!

Bernie Camp

The JCC offers a safe, fun, and stimulating environment with a staff dedicated to ensuring a great summer for each of our campers. Summer Camp is full of fun, games, on-site swimming, field trips, and also a focus on building lasting friendships and developing social and life skills. Camp groups feature a focus on the arts, leadership and independence, or sports, and all groups swim 4 times per week.

Bernie Camp is for children entering 1st through 10th grade, while our Camp K’Ton Ton is for children ages 2 – 5.

Camp K’Ton Ton

At Camp K'Ton Ton we aim to enrich the lives of children by building friendships, fostering discovery and, most of all, having summertime fun! Because our focus is on young children, Camp K'Ton Ton is located in our Early Childhood Center (preschool & kindergarten during the school year). Though camp classrooms are in the ECC, don't worry, campers will have plenty of chances to explore the entire Jewish Community Center — from rock climbing to swimming, from art to dancing, and plenty more.

 

Camp Snowbird

Summer Camp with a View!

Children at camp experience a deeper connection to the outdoors and nature, develop a sense of team work and collaboration, and form wonderful friendships.  Kids hike, swim, climb, and work as a team to create, solve and explore in our beautiful canyon.

Mountain Sports Camps: 

Enjoy the mountain playground while learning new skills in a variety of activities. Mountain bike, trail run, hike, and climb with professional coaches. Participating youth will be coached in specific sports in morning and afternoon sessions, and have access to Snowbird’s many other summer activities!
