Day Camp
Camp accepts special needs children on a case by case basis.
Session Lengths: 1 Week
Each year, Camp Raanana takes the day camping world by storm by offering fun nearly every day of the summer (minus the 4th of July and weekends)! It simply doesn’t get much better than this!
We offer 8 weeks (each week is a 1 session) at our Chelsea location (including 3 optional overnights), and 2 weeks at the JCC.

Sas comes to the JCC of Greater Ann Arbor and Camp Raanana after two years as the Assistant Director of Camp Interlaken JCC in Milwaukee, WI and four years as the Assistant Director at Camp Mountain Chai in San Diego, CA. She is honored that her camping career also includes her participation in the Foundation for Jewish Camp’s Yitro Leadership Program, 10 summers on staff at URJ Camp George, and 2 summers on senior staff at the Wilshire Boulevard Temple Camps.

Rachel is thrilled to be a part of the JCC and Camp Raanana family. She cannot think of a better place to share her passion for Jewish camping and Jewish education. Her goal for this and every summer is to create a fun and lively Jewish community where children can form and nurture lasting friendships and relationships.
