Summer Camps

Camp is that time of year when kids have the chance to just be kids. We provide an amusing and challenging environment that ensures every camper has the best summer of his/her life. Camp is more than fun and games, we also focus on friendship building and creating social and life skills.

Registration for summer camp is separate from registration for the school year. First consideration is given to children enrolled in the school year program.

Summer Camp is offered in five 2-week sessions plus Pre and Post Camps.

About Camp K'Ton Ton

Let's start with the name: K'Ton Ton is Hebrew for "little one." Summer camps have been part of JCCs across the country for decades and our center is no exception. We split our camp into the traditional Bernie Camp for older kids and K'Ton Ton for preschoolers and children entering their kindergarten year. Because we're dealing with "little ones," K'Ton Ton is housed in our Early Childhood Center (preschool & kindergarten during the school year).

At K'Ton Ton we aim to enrich the lives of children by building friendships, fostering discovery & just plain summertime fun. Summer at Camp K'Ton Ton represents a change of pace from the school year. Camp K'Ton Ton ("little one" in Hebrew) is designed to reinforce, enhance & broaden learning experiences for children.
