We may be stuck in the dreary dead of winter, but it’s time to think warm thoughts because summer camp planning has officially begun. Thankfully, the Kaplen JCC on the Palisades is making it easy to book the perfect summer camp experience for your child! On Sunday, February 4 from 1-3 pm they are hosting a Family Fun Day where you can learn all about their summer camp offerings while kids enjoy glitter tattoos, balloon making, a bounce house, arts and crafts, and sample camp activities.
Best of all, families who register their campers that day will be entered to win one free week of any camp and receive $250 off 5+ weeks of day camp or $150 off 3 or 4 weeks of day camp, $50/week off specialty camps and $200 JCC cash if you join the JCC’s full-year membership.
Camp offerings are vast and include the Neil Klatskin Day Camp for littles age 3 through grade 2, which includes Red Cross instructional swim, a host of specialty activities, weekly special events and Hebrew immersion options. There’s also a huge array of specialty camps for kids in grades 3 and up, including Fine Arts, Science, Big Idea Hi-Tech, Multi-Sport, Basketball, Tennis, Dance Intensive, Center Stage Musical Theater, Broadway Showtime and Comedic Acting. There’s truly a camp for every kid.
Looking to fill the time between school and camp and camp and school? The JCC also offers full-day, fun mini-camp options including sports, dance, music and more.
JCC membership is required for all sport camps for children under 10 years in all other camps. The JCC offers many membership options including a Camp Family Membership for $750 that runs Memorial Day through Labor Day ($250 for families new to the JCC).
If you can’t make the Family Fun Day but have questions about camp or want to schedule a tour, contact the camp office at 201.408.1485 or [email protected]. Camp office hours are Monday to Friday from 9 am to 5:30 pm.
