To create a more balanced experience, we incorporate outdoor recreation breaks throughout the day – we beleive, like you, that kids should move!

Friendly, High-Energy Teachers and Counselors

Classes are lively, exciting, interactive and provocative — frequently sparking discussions that continue throughout the day.

Residential counselors live and work with small groups of enrichment campers to ensure full-time supervision. Our counselors are typically college seniors or older specializing in education or hospitality. They provide friendship, support and guidance — checking in with each junior camper several times a day to monitor his or her well-being, activities and comfort. In particular, they help campers with decision-making, scheduling, day-to-day problems and enjoying Julian Krinsky Enrichment Camp to the fullest. Campers have full-time access to counselors outside of class time.

We get stacks of letters from our campers and families filled with praise for our counselors — words like enthusiastic, responsible, good-humored, patient and caring. You’ll enjoy spending a few weeks with them this summer too!
