Camp Open House | Monday, April 28 | 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM

Join us and learn more about summer camp at the J. Meet staff, ask questions, tour camp. There will be a bounce house and swag for the kids. And pizza for all! Plus: meet the team from 2-4-1 Sports Camp and try out some of the awesome sports they're bringing to camp this summer!

Why Come to Camp at the Springfield JCC?

Our ACA-accredited program provides a full-day, authentic camp experience for children entering grades K-8, plus a Leaders-in-Training program for teens entering grades 9-10. Choose from traditional camp, inclusion camp or our specialty sports camp, all located on our 20-acre campus on the Springfield/Longmeadow line.

Every day, campers will enjoy a wide range of exciting activities. They can swim in the pool, conquer our ropes course, master archery, play pickleball or any number of other indoor and outdoor sports and games. They can take a quieter moment to create something special in our arts and crafts sessions. They can learn a little more about Jewish culture and customs through engaging Jewish activities and celebrations.

During the summer, your camper(s) will build friendships, confidence and independence. Our caring counselors will help them to meet and mingle with friends new and old, to take safe risks, and to develop new skills.

Camp Funds

More than $500,000 has been awarded in scholarships at the Camp. Thank you to the following scholarships for their help annually:

  • The Morris Dane Campership Fund, established by the Dane Family to honor the memory of their father, husband and past president of the J.
  • The Norman Cooper Fund supports the whole J. Norman was a social worker at the JCC who is remembered for his special commitment to our Community.
  • The Kenneth Gotlib Campership Fund was established by his parents to honor the graduate of the JCC Preschool and Heritage Academy, an active J Camper and swim team participant.
  • The Szafran family created the Jordan Szafran Scholarship Fund to honor the memory of their son, Jordan, who was an avid sports camper and Cudas swim team member.
  • The David and Ruth Bennett Camp Scholarship Fund was established because the family wanted to make it possible for all who wish to enjoy a Jewish JCC summer camp experience.
  • The Rabbi Mark Dov Shapiro Memorial Fund for Social Justice aims to help lower-income families send their children to summer camp at the Springfield JCC. The fund honors the life and legacy of Rabbi Mark Dov Shapiro, a beloved spiritual leader who passed away in July 2020.
  • Vi Uretsky Camp Scholarship Fund was established by Francine Uretsky Beranbaum and Susan Uretsky Strauss in memory of their mother Vi to provide need-based scholarships for JCC Summer Campers and honor her legacy of caring for children and helping people in need.
