TESTIMONIALS
You guys are amazing! Gianni had the best time ever. He was sad it had to end. I want to thank the JCC for focusing on hope and positivity rather than fear. It was inspiring.

Thank you so much for the Jameson Family on behalf of Julian! He had such a wonderful summer! We are so grateful for you all – your staff did a great job and you all thought of everything during this pandemic so the campers were safe and happy.

We were so lucky to accidentally land at the JCC! Our kids had an incredible summer, with loving counselors, awesome activities and a feeling of safety. They left home and came home with a smile each day.

Another fantastic summer in the books. Thank you for making such special memories for our kids. So happy that Alice is a part of the JCC family. From the moment that I spoke to Rachel last summer I knew that something special was about to start for our littlest girl. Her older brother and sister are jealous of her camp life! ☺
Chelsea A.
Thank you so much for all that you guys have been doing! Michael is having a fantastic time and has been telling us that he wants to be a counselor when he grows up! The staff has been amazing and wonderful.

We can’t thank you enough for giving Asher the best summer. He is learning so much, he is SO proud of himself for his swimming and sport achievements, and I’m so thankful that he absolutely adores his counselors. He talks about coach Jamie all the time and we can see that his aim and concentration are so much better! I was really hoping for him not come home crying every day but this summer and the summer home that you guys have created for my baby has far exceeded anything that we imagined!!
