The Memphis Jewish Community Center’s Day Camp is a nurturing community that creates a safe and fun environment for our campers, with Jewish values at our core.

Traditional Camp is the perfect place for a kid to be a kid. Each day is filled with dynamic programming, allowing each camper to explore his or her own interests and to try new activities.  Multiple groups in each age range make up a unit.

We also offer a variety of sports and specialty camps. From Circus Camp, Art Camp, and STEAM Camp to Soccer Camp, Basketball Camp, and more; there is sure to be something for everyone in our jam-packed summer.

All campers enjoy our outdoor water park every day. Campers age 4- entering 6th grade have instructional swim and free swim each day.

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

At URJ Camp Newman’s summer camp, we’re building a foundation for a vibrant Jewish life. Led by experienced staff and Jewish professionals, we offer a plethora of traditional and specialty summer sessions from 3 days to 8 weeks at our home amongst the redwood trees in the hills of Santa Rosa, CA. Campers currently in 2nd-11th grades create community within their cabins, as a part of an age-group cohort and together with the full camp community. Days at camp include individual choice from an abundant mix of activities like archery, circus arts, martial arts, splashing in the pool and flying down the waterslide, tons of sports like pickleball, basketball, soccer and ultimate frisbee, fine and performing arts, all within our joyful, Jewish community. Shabbat is the highlight of our week complete with music, Israeli dancing, delicious food and stunning sunsets. At camp, we create the world as we want it to be – more inclusive, more kind, more joyful – and we learn what it takes to be a mensch and go out into the world to make it a better place. We build friendships that last a lifetime and have a TON of fun! And all staff are guided by a philosophy of C.A.R.E.: Community, Acceptance, Role modeling, and Each & Every camper’s uniqueness, creating a space of true belonging.
