We provide bussing and a hot kosher lunch daily.
I have been employed by the JCC for 33 years, beginning as the camp administrator under David Jacobs, our now Executive Director. I have held many different positions outside of the camping field, over the years, but none as worthwhile and meaningful as the Camp & Youth Director. Being off-site, outside and with children and teens all summer long is the highlight of my year.
The JCC has truly been my home away from home, as well as my extended family! My daughters were born here, grew up here, and my eldest is presently working with me as the Children’s Director, in hopes to follow in my footsteps.
