Our Camp Philosophy At Weinstein JCC Summer Camps, we: Strive to create and maintain a fun and safe environment. Take pride and appreciate our outdoor settings. We endeavor to maximize the use of our environment in our programming throughout the camp day. Create programs and experiences that challenge each child and allow for personal growth. Our programs are designed to provide unique, constructive experiences, in which campers feel safe and supported to try new things and push themselves. Aim to provide educational opportunities that allow for positive identification with Jewish life. The uniqueness of our camps offers the perfect setting to further the knowledge and appreciation of Jewish values, culture and heritage. Diversity, community, respecting the environment, being kind to others, and building a better world are Jewish values that we embrace at camp.
