GFC Summer Family Camp

For years, parents and grandparents have seen our video, read our brochure, and dropped their children off in Bruceville. Many of them said “That looks like so much fun, I really wish that I could go to camp”. Well, now the entire family can come to GFC together!

It’s the ultimate Jewish, family summer camp experience:

  • Discover the beauty of a Camp Shabbat with your family and friends
  • Swim in our pools and boat on the lake
  • Conquer the Challenge Course and zip down the Zip Line
  • Sing around the campfire
  • Exercise your artistic talent through crafts, dance, music, and other media
  • Exercise the rest of you on our ball fields, in our gym and at our fitness center

It's the ultimate Jewish family vacation and a great opportunity for grandparents, parents and children of all ages to discover GFC together. Our first-ever Family Summer Camp will boast almost everything that Camp has to offer. Many of our summer staff members will remain at Camp to provide everyone with the activities that our younger campers are lucky enough to enjoy all summer long. In addition to the regular camp activities, parents will be treated to sessions with our scholar-in-residence.

Fees include all meals, snacks and programs from Wednesday dinner through Sunday brunch.
Children under three years old attend free of charge.

Adults*: $300
Children: $200
College students: $100

(*For a single-occupancy room, add $100 to the adult rate.)

  • Children entering grade one in the Fall will be housed in cabins with campers of the same age. Our college-aged staff members will live with the children, just like GFC during the rest of the summer.
  • Younger children will be housed with their parents. Day care and age-appropriate programs will be provided for them during portions of the weekend.
  • Adults will stay in our private, double-occupancy accommodations. All of our facilities have air conditioning, so you'll be comfortable no matter what kind of weather August brings.
  • All members of your family are welcome (except your pets, of course!)… Grandparents, college students and toddlers are all invited.

Be a part of GFC history at the first ever Mishpacha-palooza!
