JCC Z Frank Apachi Day Camp

Programs

Juniors — 4 & 5 Year Olds

Our nurturing, experienced staff, and small group size gives each child the attention he or she needs to have a positive first camp experience. Juniors take part in a variety of specialty activities, including daily Red Cross swim instruction, where the emphasis is on participation, building confidence and having fun.

Explorers — K–3rd Grade

The Explorers’ non-stop schedule focuses on building skills, boosting self-esteem and introducing campers to new activities. Campers swim twice daily with one period devoted to swim instruction. Field trips and under/overnighters encourage independence.

Pioneers — 4th–6th Grade

Pioneers tailor their own camp schedule by choosing specialty activities. Campers swim twice daily (one period of instruction), take part in weekly field trips and enjoy two overnighters at camp. Fifth and sixth graders head out for weekly choice activities, such as bowling, cooking or outdoor adventure.

2+2+4 Pioneers — Day Camp/Overnight Camp Combo

This one-of-a-kind program helps Pioneers make the leap from day to overnight camp with ease. Campers spend two great weeks at day camp enjoying Pioneer fun and getting to know their camp group and staff. Then they all travel together to JCC’s Camp Chi. At Chi, campers experience a summer’s worth of overnight camp fun in two exciting weeks. Campers return to day camp for the final four weeks of
the summer.

For the seasoned camper. Pioneer Plus takes field trips 3 times a week (M,W,F). Campers also participate in camp activities Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Counselor-In-Training (CIT) — 9th & 10th Grade

This fun and challenging training program helps develop leadership and communication skills, and provides a great opportunity to work and learn in a fun camp environment. Successful completion of this program makes the CIT eligible to apply for a staff position the summer before entering 11th grade. Interview required.
