❱RoboticsYour favorite is back! In Robotics,

campers build and program robots

using LEGO RoboLabs. They learn

mechanical and software designs, how

to use sensors, problem solving and

teamwork skills.

❱SCRATCH!If your kids like video games, they’ll love

SCRATCH – and so will you. Campers

don’t just play video games, they create

and design them (along with music,

interactive stories and animations)

using a MIT-developed computer

programming language. While having

fun, kids learn important mathematical

concepts. This is one of our most

popular camps.

❱Chess Learn from the master! Chess master

and professional chess coach

Mikhail Perelshtyn leads this camp

for beginners and more advanced

players. There are daily lessons and

tournaments. Campers receive a special

chess certificate on the final day of

camp.

❱Engineering Kids roll up their sleeves, learn exciting

engineering skills and design amazing

structures, from bridges to houses and

more!

❱Science ExplorersJoin the adventure and explore the

world around us! We investigate it all…

from insects and plants in our backyard

to creatures at beaches and tide

pools. We learn about machines, flight,

electricity, magnetism, the elements

and more. Campers design and build

simple machines in this hands-on

program that includes field work and

dissections!

competitions. Campers should bring

their own basketball if possible. If not, a

basketball will be provided.

❱Girls BasketballGirls are the all-stars of the court for

this fun-filled week of skills, drills and

games! Practice shooting, dribbling,

passing, defense and free throws with

friends. Campers should bring their

own basketball (labeled with their

name) if possible. If not, a basketball

will be provided.

❱Tennis Serve up some fun for your kids at

Tennis Camp. Children learn the basics

of forehand, backhand, serve, volley

and net play, while playing fun games.

In case of rain, we move into the JCC

gymnasium. Campers should bring a

tennis racquet if they have one.

Ali New is coming back for another summer of JTI, after an amazing summer

last year. What does she like best?

“I like all the community service projects,” New said. “My favorite was painting

a mural for the Hood School in Lynn. I learned a lot at JTI- especially that

it feels really good to help others, whether it’s a young camper or someone in our community who is in need.”
