Camp Fair at the Simon Family JCC
Sunday, November 24, 10 am – 12 pm, Sandler Family Campus | Learn more and register at JewishVA.org/CampsandKindness
As part of Community Impact Day: Creating Kindness and Jewish Camp Curiosity, a Camp Fair will offer an opportunity for families to explore a wide variety of Jewish sleepaway and day camps. With more than eight camps participating, meaningful and enriching Jewish summer programming tailored to diverse interests and experiences will be on display.
No two children or families are alike, which is why it is important to meet all the camps, see their unique offerings, and engage in conversations about what program would be a good fit based on a child’s passions and needs. The participating camps represent different Jewish denominations, each offering a mix of activities, educational programs, and pathways for youth and their families to connect with Jewish life. The camp representatives aren’t just going to recruit for their own programs; they want children to have positive Jewish camp experiences, and they collaborate throughout the year to advance this shared mission and foster positive, lifelong memories of Jewish camping.
Camps at the Fair will include 6 Points, Camps Airy and Louise, Camp Harlam, Camp JCC Tidewater, Camp Poyntelle, Camp Ramah, Perlman Camp, and Sababa Beachaway.
Jewish Tidewater’s access to so many options for Jewish camping is an investment in Jewish continuity, ensuring that the next generation stays connected to their heritage in meaningful ways.
