While every year we keep adding to our menu of programs and activities, one thing stays the same—our ruach (spirit)! The magic a child experiences and the friendships that are developed at camp last a lifetime. Camp exposes us to new activities, new people, and to things we may never have tried before. In addition, the self-confidence that builds in children greatly impacts their future endeavors. You will not find a more dedicated or passionate group of leaders—with many of our staff starting as campers. There’s nothing like the Camp Jaycee experience!

Located at Bernard Horwich JCC, Apachi Rogers Park is a hidden gem in the community, providing campers with a one-of-a-kind exploration of Judaism and self.

With swim lessons, theme days, field trips, cookouts, and sports, campers thrive in our Torah-enriched community while exploring new interest, gaining skills, and creating lifelong friendships.

Every day at Camp JCC is packed full of activities, friendship, ruach (spirit) and adventure.
