In and Around the JCC
Remember the Way Camp Used to Be?
By Scott Snyder, Program Director
When you discovered your new best friend
lived right around the comer?
When your group built a secret campsite and you
had a secret password to get in?
When your counselor hugged you and said your
art project was great?
When you hit your first softball or sank
your first basket?
When your group collected the most firewood
for an overnight and won a prize?
When you learned to make “smores” on your
very first overnight?
When the magician taught you how to make balloon
animals during a late night program?
When your heart skipped a beat as you and the
rest of your group performed a Shabbat song?
When your birthday was during camp and the whole
camp sang happy birthday to you?
When you went hiking in the woods and you
saw animal tracks?
When the captain of your tesun said “don’t
worry, we’U win the next one?”
When you finally learned how to swim the
width of the swimming pool?
When you chose your favorite activity for
Camper Selection Period?
When you played soccer, tennis, basketbaU
and starred in your group’s Shabbat play?
When you tearfully hugged your counselor and
said, “I love you, see you next year?”
Whether it is Camps Katan, Maccabee, Sjjorts, Creative,
Computer, Teen Travel or the LIT program, you can make it
happen for your child this summer at the JCC where summer
is fun and kids can be kids. There are still spaces available tor
these exciting camp programs. For more information, contact
Scott Snyder, Program Director; Jessica Kranz, Director of
Children’s Services; or Cheryl Jankowitz, Director of Teen
Services at the JCC, 366-5007.

A Little Goes
A Long Way
Picture this — a little boy
sitting on his front steps
holding his baseball and
watching other children, his
friends, going to the Jewish
Community Center Day
Camp. His eyes are like
saucers and he wishes with
crossed fingers, that he could
be going too. He can almost
feel the cool water in the swim
ming pool as the temperature
climbs and the step gets too
hot for a little boy with short
shorts.
Where do you come in? YOU
can make the difference bet
ween a long, boring, hot sum
mer and one filled with gig
gles, splashes and fun. How?
Contribute a little to our Camp
Scholarship Fund because a
little can go a long way. If
every Center member would
contribute just $5 or $10, we
would have enough to meet
our goal.
The most important thing to
remember is that the Center
will deny NO ONE in need.
Many families apply for and
received “Campersliips.”
By helping send a child you
will have the opjportunity to
win a free session of camp for
your child. Tickets are being
sold by the Children and Camp
Committees and can be pur
chased at the JCC reception
desk.
In order to apply for a
campership, contact Barry
Hantman or Scott Snyder for
an appointment. All informa
tion remain strictly con
fidential. For an appointment,
call 366-5007.
