Camp Shalom 2021 — a summer festival of fun and games

By Rabbi Ariel Boxman, Director of Lifelong Learning

In just a few short weeks, we will end our school year and kick off Camp Shalom 2021! During the months of June and July, Temple Shalom Preschool will be transformed into a summer festival of fun and games!

At Camp Shalom, our campers will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in weekly themes, splash in our water park, tumble, dance, bake and get messy with crafts!

Camp Shalom runs for seven weeks and is specifically targeted to children ages 1-5. Returning campers and new participants all look forward to a wide variety of exciting experiences, new friendships and nonstop fun.

At camp this summer, there will be something to capture everyone’s interest. Campers participate in water play, dancing, arts and crafts, STEAM activities, shopping in our little market (Markolit), cooking — including making mini challahs on Shabbat — performing arts, foreign language and science and music, all while exercising their creativity, imagination, talent and funny bones.

From animal encounters to Preschool Olympics, our campers will not only be kept busy this summer, but they will have the time of their lives!

As of now, we still have a few openings for camp. If you are looking for a fabulous experience for your child this summer, contact the Temple Shalom Preschool office at 239-455-3227. For more information, a tour or anything else, feel free to email me at aboxman@naplestemple.org.

Splishing and splashing and keeping cool all summer long!
