Stamford JCC Day Camps @ The J

SUMMER CAMP YOUR WAY

With Day Camps@The J’s unique environment, our campers learn life skills while playing sports, creating art projects and testing the limits on our adventure course. Our camp experience is the perfect place for campers young and old to learn social skills and emotional intelligence, helping campers develop into adults who succeed in life.

We offer modern, innovative programs that engage campers and encourage them to learn new skills and discover their talents. Our curriculum is designed to help uncover their interests and passions by giving them opportunities for safe and positive risk-taking.

Camp Your Way:
Families have the flexibility to choose which weeks work best for them. Campers have the freedom to select their own electives.

Inclusive Environment:
Day Camps@The J’s Hand in Hand program supports children of all abilities in a typical camp setting. With the help of trained counselors, campers build positive relationships, develop social skills, and communicate with peers in a supportive and inclusive environment. We welcome children of all backgrounds, including transgender, non-binary, and gender-nonconforming campers.

*We welcome transgender, intersex, non-binary and gender-non conforming campers.
