A Day at Camp with PJ Our Way
- Share This Story
PJ Our Way* kids (aged 9-12) and their parents enjoyed a taste of Jewish overnight camp at "PJ Our Way Goes to Camp for Family Fun Day!" Kids and their parents explored Camp Wise and found their inner camper with activities like zip-lining, crafting, kayaking, jet skiing, and swimming– all while making new friends and learning why Jewish overnight camp is the right choice for families. They also heard about The Michael and Anita Siegal One Happy Camper - Cleveland Program, which provides up to a $1,000 incentive grant for first time campers to attend Jewish overnight camp. Today's Jewish camper is tomorrow's Jewish leader! Thank you to our fantastic host committee and event co-hosts: Mandel JCC of Cleveland, Jewish Education Center of Cleveland (JECC), The Michael and Anita Siegal One Happy Camper Program, and PJ Library®. And, thank you to all who joined us for a day at camp!
*PJ Our Way is an extension of the successful PJ Library® program. In partnership with the Jewish Federation of Cleveland and the Harold Grinspoon Foundation, PJ Library is generously funded by Mort and Iris November, in celebration of Debra Ann November's life. In addition to delivering free, high quality Jewish chapter books (that kids choose themselves), PJ Our Way provides a safe, interactive website for kids to write book reviews, meet authors, watch and create videos, be creative, and connect with their peers.
