Our fast growing Kiddie Camp offers a wonderful opportunity for youngsters ages 3 and 4 to have their first experience in a real summer camp. The children are guided in organized activity, play & social skills by loving, patient and caring staff who serve all year-round as pre - school teachers. Visits from special guests like, Magic shows, petting zoo, Fun Bus, and more, are just a few of the many activities in store for our kiddies that grow so fast.

Staff
Child development is the most significant ingredient in a healthy camp experience. This is why our staff is the real secret to our success. Our experienced counselors are known for their personal warmth and ability to care for each child as an individual. Many staff members return year after year, lending experience and continuity to all programs. Each counselor is a role model for our children, promising them friendship which will last forever! Their love for the children is surpassed only by the children’s love for them.

Communication
We believe that open communication between parents, counselors, campers, and administration is the critical yet understated ingredient that makes a successful day camp. At FLJDC, we lay huge emphasis on communication; we hold daily staff meetings to keep abreast of developements, and send regular emails home to camp parents, so that everyone operates on the same page. We strongly encourage camp parents to reciprocate, as we can only address those concern of which we are made aware.
