Our fast growing Kiddie Kamp offers a wonderful opportunity for your younger child to have their first experience in a real summer camp. The children are guided in organized activity, play & social skills by loving, patient and caring staff who serve all year-round as pre- school teachers. Our kiddies are growing fast, this is the place to be!  
        
Our picturesque camp sites contain beautiful facilities,well suited to a full program of sports, games, crafts, dramatics and other enriching camp activities. Our experienced staffers work to develop skills, confidence and a sense of fair play within each child.

Camp Gan Israel - the Summer of a Lifetime!

Parents write: Dear Rabbi and Chanie, I don't get a chance to see you too often, since Eli has been doing carpool, but I just wanted to touch base and let you know what an AMAZING time all three of my kids are having! Bentzi gets up every morning and immediately gets his backpack and bathing suit on! Ayelet comes home everyday with more stories about how much fun she is having. Even Akiva who is hard to get out of his shell is LOVING camp! It really made a huge difference in their acclimation to Rochester and the kids in the community. Thanks again for all of your hard work. Kara & Eli Wurtzel
