Programs and Activities
Fun and Friendship That Last Forever
Play Ball!
Supervised by our instructors, children develop sportsmanship, confidence, and the ability to enjoy sports including baseball, basketball, football, kickball, creative movement and more.
Shake and bake!
Campers learn to prepare cookies, candies, cakes, Challah, and other delicious treats… and of course, they will bring home copies of the recipes for the entire family to enjoy!
Lights, Camera, Action!
Comedy skits, talent shows, and auction days are just a few programs that challenge the children to develop their innate talents.
Jewish Pride Alive and well!
Our campers are imbued with a deep sense of pride in their religious heritage and love for the land of Israel. Exciting activities, stories, games, contests, and Friday Shabbat parties are all part of the unique Camp Gan Izzy experience. There’s never a dull moment at Gan Izzy.
CGI on the go!
Gan Izzy has multiple field trips every week! In the past, we went on the following trips: Six Flags Great Adventure (for 3rd grade and older), Pump it Up, The Franklin Institute, Laser Tag, Stratosphere Trampoline Park, The Camden Aquarium, Go Carts, Bumper Cars, Water Rides, Bowling and more. These exciting adventures allow our children to really show their true CGI spirit! Trips vary by age groups. Please note that all campers will have brightly colored camp tee shirts for easy identification on trips.
Skills and Thrills!
Camp Gan Izzy’s innovative Jewish-themed arts and crafts teach the children to be creative and imaginative. Each time that they do a craft, there is a Jewish lesson to go along with it… What’s better than being creative and learning at the same time? Campers are sure to proudly look back at their beautiful crafts well after the summers is over.
Ages & Stages!
All campers at Gan Izzy are divided into age groups for individualized attention and supervision. Under the guidance of dedicated counselors, the children of each group work together as a team and learn the value of friendship and unity.
Swimming!
With the exception of field trip days, we provide a completely safe free swim program in a beautiful full-sized pool. For a small extra fee of $15 per week, we can offer swim lessons as well. For kids who cannot yet swim, there is an exciting kiddie pool as well as a pool-side playground for extra pool time fun. All aquatic activities are under careful supervision of experienced and certified Red Cross lifeguards. Safety is our primary concern.
Special Activities!
Our special activities include food art, a carnival, Mad Science, a Shabbat spa experience, a trip to a firehouse, balloon art, water activities, hip hop dance classes and hands-on guest presentations.
Daily Lunch!
We offer the convenience of delicious lunches and snacks! Relax while your child enjoys a freshly prepared, nutritionally balanced lunch at no additional cost.
