A typical day is anything but. Our variety camp includes all the classic summer camp activities and experiences, but we don’t stop there. Our specialty track program allows your camper to dive a little deeper into sports, the arts, and cooking. JCYS North has the classic day camp experience and specialty programming. Plus, weekly field trips!
Our camp culture is filled with spirit and silliness, where everyone cheers on each other, and children are supported to take risks, challenge themselves, and try new things.
