Tracy Levine of One Happy Camper NJ offers free, personalized guidance to area families to help connect each child with the right program.  Tracy is available for phone, in-person or on-line consultations.  This service is funded by the Jewish community, and there is never a fee paid by families or by camps.  Tracy explains “With more options than ever available today – from traditional to specialty camps in sports, outdoor adventure,  science & technology, farming, entrepreneurship and more – it’s all about finding the right program for your child that will give them that magical experience and help them discover their best self.”

 

Families consistently give glowing reviews of the summer camp experience, through which campers cultivate their self-confidence, independence and knowledge of their Jewish heritage while participating in favorite and new activities with lifelong friends.  There are 150+ Jewish overnight programs to choose from, including specialty camps, outdoor adventure, teen travel, camps for children with special needs and more. 

 

New campers may be eligible for a non needs-based gift of $1,000 One Happy Camper NJ grant toward 150+ overnight camps or teen programs, or for introductory rates of 40-80% off through the new BunkConnect program at an array of camps across the Northeast.  For eligibility details and for free camp guidance, please visit www.OneHappyCamperNJ.org or contact Tracy Levine at 973.929.2970 or Tracy@OneHappyCamperNJ.org
