Awesome activities

As well as taking part in all the activities camp offers (we're talking swimming, pickleball, ropes course, archery, sports and games, arts and crafts, and more!), our campers will be entertained this summer. They will enjoy:

• Being amazed at a magic show
• Cuddling cute animals with 4-H
• Touch-a-truck with Springfield Fire Department

Campers can also look forward to tie-dye Tuesday, Israel Day and family Shabbat, our talent show, and camp carnival.

And we’re bringing back wacky Wednesdays! Have fun and show your flair by dressing like your favorite counselor or wearing your favorite sports team’s gear.

Your stories

Mom, Liz loves how this mix of activities creates a safe and happy space for her two campers: “At camp, they can play, get dirty, and have fun! And the friendships they make are wonderful. They come home tired and happy! They just love it there!”

Meet the team

Helping our campers enjoy the pool this year is Dantae Bates. As Interim Aquatics Director, Dantae will be organizing swim sessions, supervising the lifeguards, and making sure the pool is a fun and safe learning environment. Although new to the role, Dantae is not new to camp. Last year, he worked with us as a camp lifeguard. And before that, he was a camper for six years - he even remembers learning to swim here! Outside of camp, Dantae is a paraeducator in Springfield Public Schools, and loves to dance competitively and play soccer.
