KIDS CAMP
Rising Kindergarten – 5th grade
*No half-day or Pre-K
registration available
this summer.
Kids Camp at In the City Camps fosters a strong sense of belonging and connection. We are a child-centered program that focuses on supporting campers as they build confidence, make new friends, explore new interests, discover their abilities, and learn new skills. All are welcome and everyone at camp is valued and celebrated!
In the City Camps offers an age-appropriate programming structure that encourages campers to pursue their interests while also trying new things. Trained activity specialists infuse activities with Jewish values like kavod (respect) and ahava (love), while strengthening the communication, collaboration, and critical thinking skills important to succeed in the 21st century. The activities we offer include basketball, magic, swimming, art, dance, hockey, cooking, nature, soccer, field trips, talent shows, archery, Shabbat programming, and much more.
Each day at camp brings something new and exciting! Campers choose their activities 4 times a day from a list that includes sports, ropes course, archery, gaga, arts & crafts, music, dance, drama, yoga, maker space, cooking, woodworking, and more! We also offer special activities throughout the week, including inflatable water slides, volunteer/mitzvah projects, and on-site field trips. Fridays are for celebrating Shabbat with special programs and camper awards.
ITC delivers exceptional experiences with:
- Experienced, nurturing staff and adult specialists specifically selected for their love of children and joy for teaching.
- Programs catered to the interests and needs of kids at different ages and developmental stages, with a low counselor-to-camper ratio per group.
- A safe, wholesome environment where kids are encouraged to be themselves.
- A strong connection to the Jewish Community with many campers returning year after year.
- A wide variety of activities to choose from, including sports, performing, visual arts, and much more.
This summer, in order to respond to the unique needs of our community’s children and adolescents in the aftermath of the Covid pandemic, ITC is once again partnering with the community-based mental health organization, Chris180.
Each of our 3 units will have an assigned Chris180 clinician accompanying them throughout the week. These clinicians will be offering ongoing social-emotional support to staff and campers alike.
Working in concert with Camper Care Director, Danya Maloon, these clinicians will offer additional opportunities for staff and campers to continue developing healthy social behaviors and greater capacity for emotional regulation.
CAMP BUNKS
Just like in overnight camp, your child will be assigned to a bunk. The bunk has all the fun of overnight camp AND your camper comes home each day to share their fun day with you!
ITC maintains a 6:1 camper-to-counselor ratio. Each group will be no larger than 18 children with 3-4 staff. Bunks are coed and often mixed age groups. We always do our best to accommodate requests on the camper application, as we know how important this can be to campers (but it is not guaranteed).
BUNKS
Rising Kindergarten and First grades = Nitzanim Unit (Seedlings)
Rising Second and Third Grades = Chaverim Unit (Friends)
Rising Fourth and Fifth Grades = Tayarim Unit (Travelers)
*No half-day or Pre-K registration available this summer
Our campers come from every school and synagogue in Atlanta, and MANY do not know others on their first day. Do not worry!
The array of activities to choose from are incredible, the fact that you encourage independence is great too and love the Friday ones and so much more – feels like so many of the overnight camp rituals are created and celebrated here!
