"Last summer was the first summer Cooper and Sydney attended Camp Gan Israel. It was the best decision we made for them. They were actively engaged each week with two field trips, as well as swimming, tennis, Zumba, self-defense classes, arts and crafts, and cooking. Syd came home singing camp songs, and Coop always stated his day was, “Awesome!” Camp counselors were wonderful and made sure each child was well taken care of during the camp day. Syd and Coop look forward to attending another year at Camp Gan Israel." -Brad and Leigh Currie, Flemington, NJ
