Camp FAQs

Do campers swim everyday?

Campers will have the option to swim nearly everyday at camp. Some exceptions apply if your camper is out on a field trip or in a specialty camp that conflicts with swim time. We do typically offer swim earlier in the day for campers in PM specialty camps. Campers that opt to not swim often spend additional time either in the gym or at playground.

What do I need to pack for my camper each day?

Campers will need a lunch, swim stuff (don’t forget the sunscreen!), close-toed shoes, and a water bottle. We recommend packing an extra snack as we are pretty active throughout the day.

PLEASE LABEL EVERYTHING YOU SEND WITH YOUR CAMPER.

Does camp have naptime?

Camp does not have naptime. In the extreme circumstance a camper needs a nap, we can often accommodate one in the camp office, however it should not be a regular occurrence.

Can my child bring toys or electronics?

Camp should be free of electronics and toys from home. There will be plenty of time after camp for those things and we would rather spend the time at camp together. Camp Komaroff is not responsible for the theft or damage of personal property.

Is my child responsible for carrying their own belongings with them all day?

We try to have designated homerooms where each camp group can leave their belongings to minimize the amount of stuff your camper has to carry. We will often have them bring all of their belongings to the locker rooms before swim time, however the remainder of the day they typically only have their water bottle with them.

Please reach out to camp at youth@alpertjcc.org if you have any additional questions. Camp can also be reached at (562) 337-2386.
