JCYS North Suburban Day Camp

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 nature. JCYS North has the classic day camp experience and specialty programming rolled into one. Plus, for Summer 2022, we will once again be offering weekly field trips*! A full field trip list will be available in Spring 2022, but we are excited to finally be able to offer these fun-filled days again.

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.
