ACTIVITIES AT CAMP

Art
We offer a wide range of arts and crafts projects for campers in grades Pre K through 8. Projects range from decorating clay pots and painting, to friendship bracelets and lanyards!

Music
We love music at Camp Rodef Shalom! Music can be found all over camp, whether it is learning a new lyrics, singing and dancing in the hallway, or raising a shoe while singing "Chariot."

Drama
Improvisation, pun-offs, acting, and puppet shows are just of the few activities you might view in the drama room. Our creative drama staff lead many different games and fun experiences!

Cooking
Over the summer, campers in grades 4-8 learn to make a variety of different and delicious recipes. In the past we have made pies, fruit kabobs, cookies, frittatas, and challah, all while learning about food and kitchen safety in a fun environment!

Mad Science
Campers love to experiment in a safe environment with fun and imaginative activities exploring concepts such as kinetic energy and trying new experiences like Magic Berries, which temporarily make sour things taste sweet!

Outdoor Adventure
Our outdoor adventure program helps campers explore the outdoors around Temple Rodef Shalom. Our experienced staff teach campers about animals, plants, and nature all around!


Sports
Sports play a vital part in our communal activity! Activities include, but are not limited to Gaga (Israeli dodgeball), soccer, hockey, dodgeball, frisbee, and obstacle courses, often with imaginative and unexpected variations!
Younger campers stay on our campus, and older campers use nearby ballfields as well. Our older campers get a longer time block for sports, which allows for more sophisticated activities.
Fun Fitness
For Pre K to 5th graders we have brought in Funtastic Fitness, an interactive, exciting way to energize the day.
Funtastic Fitness provides creative movement and sports development through games and activities such as:
-
Giant Parachute
-
Jumbo Balloon Ball
-
Rockets
-
Obstacle Courses
-
Wacky Relays

Swim Time
*Our kindergarten through 4th graders enjoy splashing in the water at Holmes Run Pool in Falls Church on Mondays and Thursdays.
For our preschool campers, who don't go to the swimming pool, we offer supervised water time on our premises with baby pools, inflatable slides, sprinklers, and lots of squirt toys.
