Summer Camp Junior And Senior Counselors For Bernie Camp

Summer Camp Counselors for Bernie Camp
Bernie Camp is a 10-week day camp for school-aged children and is located at the Jewish Community Center. Each week the children attend swimming lessons, art class, sports, Israeli culture, workshops, and go on a field trip. Counselors accompany and participate in all of these activities with their groups. They provide social and emotional support to their campers. Groups are all-gender and divided by age.

The Bernie Camp staff is a friendly, supportive, and professional team. We are guided by Jewish values and open to everyone. Staff are welcome to bring their full selves to camp. We celebrate the diversity of our staff, volunteers, families, and campers.

Join us for a summer filled with wonder and fun! Love where you work!
