About Camp Keff - Peninsula Jewish Community Center (JCCA) in Foster City, CA

At Camp KEFF, each day is designed to help campers foster creativity, confidence, and friendships. Our camp is open to children of all backgrounds, and we use Jewish traditions like humor and invention to create a diverse, welcoming community. Every week features a new theme, such as Chaverut (Friendship), Tikkun Olam (Repair the World), and Kehillah (Community). Through these themes, campers are encouraged to explore new and exciting experiences while learning universal values and how to be a “mensch” (Yiddish for really good person). At Camp KEFF, we strive to make every camper's experience as enjoyable and FUN as possible. Our activities are designed to bring children together to learn, play, and create a better world. We believe that by joining with friends, campers can have a blast while working to make the world a better place. Our goal is for children to leave camp feeling inspired and empowered to make positive changes in their lives.

Tinkerers

As a Tinkerer, your child will spend playful hours with friends on our playground, bring their imagination to life with creative and colorful projects, and sing fun songs at the top of their lungs! At Camp Keff, we encourage our campers to fully express their curiosity, build meaningful friendship bonds with fellow campers, and enthusiastically extract all the learning they can out of each day’s experiences. Through our much-loved, professionally crafted physical education curriculum, they’ll find joy, laughter, and energy in all kinds of creative activities—dancing, tumbling, jumping, and more! Plus, they’ll go “full STEAM ahead” as they enjoy hands-on experimentation and exploration in our Maker Studios and dig into nature in the PJCC’s warm and welcoming organic Justice Garden.
