Special Summer Camp For Jewish Clevelanders

BEACHWOOD, OH — A special summer camp for Jewish children in the Greater Cleveland area will be held June 25 at the Anisfield Day Camp at Halle park in Burton. The event will run from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and is called "PJ Library Goes to Camp for Family Fun Day."

The event is a collaboration between the Jewish Federation of Cleveland at the Mandel Jewish Community Center. The event is held annual and is a day-long event structured for families and children under the age of 12.

During the event, families will be given the opportunity to use canoes, swim in the lake and pool, swing across a ropes course, and participate in a group singing session. Plus, what would camp be without an arts and craft shack and freshly roasted s'mores.

There will also be an opportunity for families to give back to their community. A mini YLday of Caring will be held during camp with the help of the Federation's Young Leadership Division.

Families should pack their own picnic lunch. Refreshments will be provided and kosher dietary laws will be observed.

The Kent State Geauga Campus, 14111 Claridon Troy Road, Burton, will provide parking. A shuttle will then transport families to the camp site. Parking is not available at Anisfield.

Registration costs vary for Family Fun Day. For more information or to register, visit www.jewishcleveland.org.
