Dear Camp Families, Welcome to the Mindy Ellen Levine Day Camp at the Sandra and Leon Levine Jewish Community Center! Summertime is an opportunity for children to play, experiment, celebrate and grow with friends.

We can t wait to start celebrating our 18th summer! So get ready for a summer filled with friendship, fun and memories that will last a lifetime. Happy Camping! Senior Staff Our senior camp staff is comprised of full-time Levine JCC professionals. With of experience in the field of summer camping, this closely-knit group works throughout the year to establish standards and develop exciting programs for our campers. This combination of experience, hands-on management, and programmatic creativity ensures that Mindy Ellen Levine Day Camp is the best possible program for your child. Counselor Staff Our staff is comprised of mature, enthusiastic young men and women who are dedicated to the development of your children and sensitive to their needs. All staff participate in a formal staff orientation before the start of the camp season. Unit heads and/or the camp director supervise counselors using a hands-on approach that ensures only the best of care for our campers. The Mindy Ellen Levine Day Camp is always fortunate to have a significant number of returning staff creating an atmosphere rich in professional experiences and camaraderie. Our Philosophy Mark DiDonato Mark has been working camps at the Levine JCC for 33. This will be Mark s 7th year as Camp Mindy Director. At Mindy Ellen Levine Day Camp, we believe that a summer camp experience can have positive and lasting benefits for your child. Through making friends, participating in an array of activities, learning new skills, being outdoors, and experiencing Judaism, camp becomes a place where campers have fun, grow, and feel good about who they are. Our campers follow a schedule that takes full advantage of all Shalom Park facilities. Our specialists develop their activity centers so that campers have fun experiences, learn new skills, and accomplish realistic goals. Your child will return home at the end of the day with a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction. After all, that is what camp is all about. At Camp Mindy, we also encourage the expression of feelings and ideas and work with our campers so that they may develop a sense of respect and understanding for the feelings and opinions of others. As a Levine Jewish Community Center program, the Mindy Ellen Levine Day Camp emphasizes Jewish identity and traditions. Through Jewish life experiences and learning about our history and culture, we instill a special feeling of pride in all our campers. A Jewish camp helps ensure that these values and beliefs are transferred to the next generation. Camp Mindy
