Holistic Approach
Campers thrive emotionally, socially, physically, intellectually, and spiritually in our community.

Jewish Values
Community, compassion, and tikkun olam (repairing the world) are woven throughout the week in activities like weekly Shabbat celebrations. Jewish values are universal values and everyone is welcome. You donโ€™t have to be Jewish to attend J Camp.

Water Fun
Kids splash and play at indoor pools, Lake Washington, and Green Lake.

Field Trips
Campers enjoy excursions to Seattle attractions, from state parks to Mariners games.
