Our Staff

Gan Israel prides itself on its exceptional staff. All staff come with prior camp experience and a desire to work with kids. In addition there are Junior Counselors to help. Each elective is run by professional instructors.

Our Camp Director has many years of day camp experience. She is the leader of our top staff and takes great pride in our on-going, comprehensive staff training program. Her extensive experience with pre-schoolers through teenagers makes her a valuable mentor and administrator to our camp throughout the summer.

The real secret to our success lies in our outstanding staff.  Our counselors are known for their personal warmth and their 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 perhaps surpassed only by the children's love for them.
