CAMPERS WISH THE SUMMER WOULD LAST FOREVER
Camps based in Monroeville include our flagship J&R Day Camp, Yalla Balagan Travel Camp and Specialty Camps, where children grow and flourish, encouraged by enthusiastic staff to explore new interests, cultivate skills and find new opportunities to engage, create and have fun.
Our action-packed schedule provides a balance of group activities and special campwide programs. With sports, aquatics, outdoor adventure, arts & crafts, drama, nature and music, our campers enjoy a well-balanced, well-rounded experience in a gorgeous and safe environment.
Our day camps connect campers together through unique experiences and lasting relationships. We weave Jewish values into the daily lives of our campers through music, art, dance, and sports. At our camps, there is a place for every camper, whether she or he is a team player, an individualist, creative, athletic, or any combination. Your child will be cared for, respected and appreciated. Inclusiveness and respect for every individual are paramount to our day camp community.
Campers are challenged in developmentally appropriate ways. At whatever stage a child starts the summer at our day camps, he or she will begin a progressive journey through the creative programming we offer.
