Summer is the joyful season of long days and firefly nights when children build self-confidence and discover the world around them. Itβs a magical time to experience the outdoors, explore nature, develop socially and acquire an extra measure of independence. At the JCC we help your children create meaningful, memorable summers by providing a safe, wholesome environment and the opportunity to learn through new experiences and enriching activities.
The delightful grounds of the JCC provide the perfect setting for SummerPlace daily activities. Facilities include a swimming pool, tennis courts, playing fields playground, and outdoor picnic and activity areas. At the JCC, rainy days are never a washout, thanks to our extensive indoor facilities which enable all activities to continue at full peak, no matter what the weather.
Specialists lead activities including sports, nature, arts and crafts, and dance/music to name a few. In addition, participants will also choose from a variety of electives allowing them to focus on the specialized activities they like the best. Our American Red Cross certified swim program strives to make every child feel comfortable in the water, enhance their skill levels and help them develop aquatic skills that will serve them for a lifetime. Each session will feature theme days, either in-house entertainment or field trips depending on age.
