It's all about team building, being active and having fun this Summer as the JCC is offering a variety of sports camps this Summer for boys and girls of all ages.  From basketball to soccer to tennis, camps will be held indoors and outdoors, taught by qualified coaches.

According to JCC Director of Health and Physical Education, Dan Whalen, “participants will not only participate in skill building and competitions, but will learn life lessons as well.”
