JCY Day Camp Goes Virtual for 2020

Our JCY Day Camp has always held the highest standards for the safety and welfare of its campers. The Jewish Federation’s Board of Directors and staff have spent weeks gathering information about the impact of COVID-19 in order to ensure we could make the best decision for our JCY family.

It is with great sadness that we share, out of the utmost concern for the well-being of our campers, staff members and their respective families, we have made the very difficult decision to cancel in-person JCY Camp for the summer of 2020. All registration fees will be refunded over the next 3-4 weeks.

We have always made our decisions based on what is best for our children and families, and this is no different. In this instance, we are unable to guarantee camper safety. The well-being of everyone is just too important to move forward with camp. 
We are very excited to share that we have made the decision to offer a virtual JCY experience free to our community this summer. We are putting together many engaging and fun activities which will be offered via the "JCY Day Camp" Facebook page beginning June 15, 2020. While virtual camp activities will never replace the real JCY experience, we are thankful for the opportunity to connect with you and your children during this uncertain time.

It is our hope that social distancing requirements will be such that we will be able to plan one or more special get-togethers during the summer. We are also planning on hosting a few Zoom meetings to play games and see each other.

We hope you and your family members are safe and well, and that your camper(s) will be joining us this summer for JCY's “The Virtual” Summer of Peace, Love, and good old-fashioned JCY fun. We know it is not the same as being together, but here at JCY, we're determined to make the best of it. We love you. We miss you. We can’t wait to see you soon.
​
Peace, Love, and JCY!
