JCC and Temple Beth Zion in Royal Palm Beach
offer Camp Shalom Jr. West for preschool children
BOYNTON BEACH — Are you still searching for a convenient summer experience for your pre-schooler? Well, your quest is over. The JCC of the Greater Palm Beaches is bringing its award-winning Camp Shalom Jr. to Temple Beth Zion in Royal Palm Beach. The temple is located at 129 Sparrow Drive. Camp begins June 15 and runs through Aug. 7, 2009. Hours are 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. with ‘extended day’ and part-time options to choose from.
At Camp Shalom Jr. West, children ages 2-5 will enjoy an active, fun-filled summer experience in a safe, loving, and engaging environment. Children will be provided with age-appropriate activities, including art, science, nature, music, sports, and creative movement, as well as Judaic programs and Shabbat celebrations.
Temple Beth Zion is a bus stop for older campers attending Camp Shalom in West Palm Beach so parents with older children also will have the convenience of a one-stop camp drop-off point. (A free summer VPK program is available for children who will be five years old by September 1 and have not yet taken advantage of the fall VPK program.)
Camp Shalom Jr. West registration forms are available at the Temple Beth Zion Preschool Office, the JCC Wellington Branch and the Kaplan JCC. They are also available for download at www.campshalom.org
For more information, contact Sharon at 561-253-6030 or [email protected].
The mission of the Jewish Community Center of the Greater Palm Beaches is to create a strong Jewish community by providing high quality Jewish programs close to where people live that connect people to Jewish life.
The JCC is a beneficiary agency of the Jewish Federation of Palm Beach County.
