JCC Day Camp offers five distinct age divisions, each thoughtfully designed to evolve with our campers as they grow. We tailor our programs to support their social, emotional, and recreational development. No matter the age, our camp promises an experience that’s full of spirit, care, and endless fun!

K’TON TON/PARPAR
AGE 3 – ENTERING K

Camp K’Ton Ton and Parpar are specialized programs for our youngest campers, offering a full camp experience with age-appropriate modifications. We provide flexible scheduling including full-day, half-day, and partial-week options. Please note that all K’Ton Ton and ParPar campers must be fully toilet trained.

“Nitzan” means “flower bud” in Hebrew and it’s the perfect place for your child to grow and flourish! Nitzan campers will attend a full week of camp, complete with sports, swimming, and cultural activities. Whether they attended Camp K’ Ton Ton last year or are new to the JCC Day Camp family, we know our Nitzan campers will love what we have in store for them this summer!

YEAR ROUND PROGRAMMING

The fun doesn’t have to stop when summer ends! One thing that makes our camp so special is our year-round programming, giving kids opportunities to have fun and see their friends again—plus, making the long months between summers so much easier to pass. Our programs include weekend camp nights, music lessons, School’s Out days, sports, aquatic adventures, and family programs.
