OUR SECRET? OUR STAFF!
The Experience
THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN SPENDING YOUR SUMMER WITH US HERE AT THE SHERRY WILZIG IZAK GAN ISRAEL DAY CAMPS IN MORRISTOWN, NJ!
Have you ever wanted to be the most fun person in the world? Your campers will think so! We set the bar high for our staff as there is nothing we take more seriously than providing an unforgettable summer experience for our campers punctuated with professionalism and care.
Our camp mission is to provide a safe, fun, and uplifting summer day camp experience for Jewish children where love for Judaism is taught through fun and joy and every staff member, camper, and parent feels like family.
We would love for you to join our family! Please take a look at the following requirements before applying for a staff position this summer:

Dates
Camp dates are Monday June 26- Friday August 11, 2023 (followed by a bonus week from August 14-18). We are primarily seeking staff that can work all 7 weeks of camp. You can apply for a partial session, but precedence will be given to staff that are available for the entire season.
Timeliness


Pre-season dates
Parents entrust us with their children knowing our reputation for professional and certified staff. Training is crucial for our staff and is a requirement for employment both by Camp Gan Israel and our various licensing bodies. Staff training consists of both online and in-person training. Online training is due at least 2 weeks before camp. In-person staff training and camp set up will take place Friday June 23 & Sunday June 25. All staff are expected to be present for staff training.
Our commitment
We reciprocate your devotion and show our appreciation for your tireless efforts with vigorous after-camp activities, trips, and gifts.
Your effort will be rewarded by the love of your campers, satisfaction from their growth and Jewish involvement, and your own enriched experience.
