Camp site is in the middle of mature trees. Pools are large, clean and clear blue. Facilities are excellent from the dining hall to the huge huge multipurpose gym to the Nature Shack to the well cared for and numerous athletic fields. JCC camp is a gem rarely found so close to the city.
I met with Rick which has worked there for 46 years. The camp has been running for over 80 years. Rick graciously gave us a tour of the entire camp that offers many great activities for kids. It was a first for me to hear of a game called Gaga which was interesting.
The JCC Day Camp is the most amazing camp in Northeast Pennsylvania. Kids can be kids here! It's also the longest operating - created in the 1930's, in part to give at least one hot meal to children during the Depression. Each year the camp gives many thousands of scholarship dollars to area children for the summer of a lifetime!
Amazing and caring camp director with great staff. The camp incorporates all kinds of activities and sports and creates a safe and caring environments for campers to have the best summer ever!
