Camp Matters! Learn Why...
1
Personal Growth
Camp is a place where children build confidence and independence. With each new activity, challenge, and friendship, campers grow stronger, more resilient, and more self-assured. The skills they learn at camp -teamwork, leadership, problem-solving - extend far beyond the summer and into their everyday lives.
2
Social Development
Camp is where children learn to communicate, collaborate, and form meaningful relationships. By interacting with peers from different backgrounds and working together on projects, campers strengthen their social skills and gain a deeper understanding of community and friendship.

Connection to
Nature & Creativity
Through outdoor adventures and creative activities, campers reconnect with nature, explore their imagination, and discover new talents. Whether it's a scavenger hunt, crafting, or exploring STEM, camp sparks curiosity and encourages kids to see the world in new ways.

The memories made at camp are some of the most cherished ones a child will have. From shared laughs on the bunk benches to the thrill of completing a challenge, these moments stay with them for years to come, shaping their sense of self and their place in the world.

At camp, your child will dive into sports, adventure, art, and drama -playing pickleball, hockey, archery, cooking, painting, and more. They’ll also build water confidence in swim lessons while exploring new interests and talents in a fun, supportive environment. These activities keep them engaged, help them step out of their comfort zone, and uncover new talents.
By registering your child for JCC Abrams Camps, you’re giving them the chance to be part of something special; an experience that will help them grow, connect, and thrive. Don’t miss the opportunity for your child to experience the transformative power of camp. Plus, its really, really fun.
A Summer Like You Remember
Unplug, Explore, Grow. The Way Camp Should Be.
In today’s world, kids are surrounded by screens - phones, tablets, and TV. While tech can be useful, research shows that stepping away from screens is key for children’s development. At JCC Abrams Camps, we believe in the power of nature, outdoor adventures, and real-world connections...without the distractions of over-the-top attractions. Our camp focuses on the timeless joys of childhood.
The Benefits of a Screen-Free Summer
BUILDS SOCIAL SKILLS
Without screens, kids connect face-to-face, forming meaningful friendships and improving communication. The American Academy of Pediatrics highlights the importance of face-to-face interaction for emotional and social growth (American Academy of Pediatrics, 2016).
KEEPS KIDS
ACTIVE
Less screen time means more movement! From games and sports to swim and nature walks, our camp ensures kids stay active. The CDC recommends 60 minutes of physical activity every day for healthy growth (CDC, 2020).
ENCOURAGES CREATIVITY
When kids unplug, their creativity flourishes. Whether it’s crafting, sports, or exploring the outdoors, camp encourages imagination. A University of Michigan study shows that more outdoor time leads to better creativity and problem-solving skills (University of Michigan, 2019).
SUPPORTS MENTAL HEALTH
Too much screen time can increase stress and anxiety. The American Psychological Association reports that limiting screens helps improve sleep and reduce stress (APA, 2019). Our screen-free camp fosters relaxation, mindfulness, and emotional well-being.
