No, we require that all campers wear a Camp Gan Izzy T-shirt on field trip days. Since all camp staff and campers wear camp shirts, we are instantly recognizable to each other. While on field trips camp shirts distinguish our campers and staff from other visitors. Camp shirts will be available for purchase before the start of camp.

Please mark all belongings with your child's name and number. This is very important since shirts, backpacks, etc. are identical and individual items are difficult to identify without a label. Lost & Found items are available each day in the camp office. Please contact us in email or by phone regarding specific items.

Camp Gan Izzy uses school buses to get from camp to swimming and field trips. Campers must remain seated at all times.

If you have to pick up your camper during the day, please notify the director. Once we are aware of your arrival time, we can arrange to have your camper ready for you. Please note that no camper will be released to ANYONE without written permission.

Campers should bring a backpack with swimming gear on swim days (Monday, Wednesday). Water is provided to the campers. We strongly suggest that parents send their children in closed toe sneakers for their own safety.  A labeled bottle of sunscreen should be sent in at the beginning of camp so campers can apply it when necessary. 

A call to the camp office will answer most questions. Since counselors are constantly supervising groups and activities, messages will be taken at the camp office. Please leave your name and phone number, and the counselor will return your call as soon as possible.

No camper will be forced to participate in any activity. However, we do encourage campers to try all activities and take advantage of the complete program offered at Camp Gan Izzy.
