Laughter. Fun. Being a role model and making a difference. Each summer, JCC Greater Boston draws young athletes to our summer Sports Camp in Newton. Camp Counselors and sports instructors guide campers in a variety of sports, games, tournaments, swimming and more as they develop their skills and build self-confidence. The energy of the camp is lively, playful and warm, as both campers and staff develop lifelong friendships. Camp Counselors work alongside camp staff to ensure a safe and fun environment for the campers.
