Kate-Lynn Cipolla has joined United Jewish Federation of Tidewater and Simon Family JCC’s full-time professional staff as assistant camp director at Camp JCC.
Cipolla is a familiar face on the Sandler Family Campus, having spent more than eight years serving in a variety of part-time roles. Throughout her tenure, Cipolla has developed a strong rapport with children and families and built a deep understanding and connection to the values of the Tidewater Jewish community.
Cipolla is enthusiastic about expanding her new role. “Camp JCC has always felt like home to me,” she says. “Being able to grow up within this welcoming community has shaped me into the person I am today. I hope to continue fostering relationships within the organization.”
In her new position, Cipolla will support the year-round planning and implementation of youth engagement programs through Camp JCC. Working under the supervision of Dave Flagler, director of camp and teen engagement, she will play a vital role in summer camp, seasonal camps, and school-year enrichment programs such as School Days Out, Kids Night Out, and after-school activities. With a strong focus on community engagement, Cipolla will also help build relationships with families and local partners to foster year-round participation.
