Camp Philosophy:

J. Academy Camp is a 12-day specialty camp for kids and teens ages 8-16 from Jewish Russian-speaking families. Every day, we explore a Jewish topic in a way that is relevant and interesting to our campers including Israel, Tikkun Olam, languages, Jewish culture, history and tradition. We believe camp is an opportunity to develop and learn new skills through our chugim: art, theatre, media, science, robotics and more. We enjoy spending time in the outdoors taking part in hiking, swimming, tubing and archery on the beautiful grounds of Camp Northland.
