Summer at the JCC is filled with splashing and giggles, hugs and high fives, fresh air and sunscreen! Time spent at camp is the best way for your child to explore their interests, meet new friends, and gain confidence in their abilities.

JCC Specialty Day Camps provide campers opportunities to build community across all of our camp offerings. We will begin each day with Morning Assembly in the JCC Courtyard before each group heads off for their camp program. On Friday afternoons, our camp community will gather to wrap up our week and enjoy a fun Shabbat celebration just prior to the end of the regular camp day.

For campers entering K5 - 9th gradeThe 2019 summer is going to be extraordinary! At JCC Rainbow Day Camp, we give children the opportunity to learn about themselves, improve their community and understand their Jewish identity, while putting technology aside and simply having the chance to play. Our unique camp community welcomes all children to experience a summer of fun, friendship, and opportunities for new and exciting challenges.

We are frequently asked what makes our camp unique. What separates us from other camping programs? The answer is pretty simple - at JCC Rainbow Day Camp, we believe every child should have a summer of play - a place to be a kid, make lasting friendships, explore new skills, be healthy, learn values, discover their Jewish identity, and be with counselors full of life and love.

So give us a call! Ask questions! We love sharing the beauty of JCC Rainbow Day Camp and exploring new ways for your child to have an outstanding summer.

• Contact JCC Chief Development Officer, Elyse Cohn, at 414-967-8188 or [email protected] to find out how you can make an impact at camp today and for a strong future. So many of the facilities and features at camp are there because of the generous gifts of our supporters.

Scholarship OpportunitiesWe work together to build a community that is inclusive of all, one that is founded upon the belief that our community is stronger when we participate in Jewish life. We are blessed with the ability to be stewards of our community’s scholarship funds and take seriously our responsibility to make these funds available to all who may need scholarship assistance. When each member of the community participates in our Camp programs, our community becomes much more than the sum of its members. Our lives are enriched by these binding relationships, helping us to grow from the richness of our individuality. Hillel said, “Do not separate yourself from the community,” and in this spirit we ask that you not say, ”When I need it more, I will apply for scholarship.” Help us to live our values by joining with us in community -- apply today!

To register for 2019 JCC Day Camps visit jccmilwaukee.org/daycamp and click the registration button to access CampMinder.CampMinder is the one-stop place to register and manage your child’s summer online. If your child was registered in JCC Day Camps last year, your information is already in the system and can be updated for this season. If you are a new camp family, you will enter each child’s information just once, and it will be available to update whenever you wish.

When registering for camp, please note:

Parent Email When a parent or guardian clicks through to our online camp enrollment system, they will be prompted to enter their first and last name, relationship to the camper, and an email address. Each account is set up by the email entered. If you have previously enrolled, please use the email that is already receiving camp emails.

Account Password If you are a new camp family, the system will prompt you to create a password. If you are a returning family, upon entering your email and clicking continue, the system will recognize you have an account on file and ask you to enter your password. If you forgot your password, you will be able to reset it. Please check your Inbox or your Junk/Spam folder for an email from CampMinder. Password delivery may take up to 5 minutes. Click on the link in that e-mail to set up your new password and security questions.

Camper Grade Please select your camper’s current grade for this school year. CampMinder will automatically make available those camps that are age appropriate for the grade they will be entering in the 2019/20 school year.

If you have any questions about the registration process, please contact Michelle Hoffman at 414-967-8266 or [email protected].
