Jay's Summer Camp - Week 2

After five days of sun, fun, games, and activities, our wonderful campers are getting ready for more weeks of great activities at Jay’s Camp 2010. As we settle into the summer, I want all the parents to know how committed all of our staff is to each and every child. All of us at Jay’s Camp will build self-esteem for every child. We want to make sure that all campers go home with a smile on his or her face and feel good about themselves.

On the buses this week we celebrated the upcoming 4th of July holiday with Red, White, and Blue day. Camper’s also enjoyed trivia bus programming all week!
