Kindergarten Programming
Our youngest campers at Safran Park enjoy a warm, nurturing environment that brings imagination to life. Through daily activities like sports, swimming, art and dance, they develop essential social skills, build teamwork and connect as part of a fun, supportive camp community — all while relishing the outdoor excitement!
First Grade
Choose between Halle Park in Burton or Safran Park in Beachwood for their Anisfield experience. At Halle Park, campers enjoy a lively bus ride to our wooded campsite where they dive into nature and endless activities. Safran Park offers a cozy, supportive environment ideal for kids who thrive with a little extra guidance. Both locations promise fresh adventures, skill-building and a vibrant community spirit.

The Francine and Benson Pilloff Family Performing Arts Camp
About PAC
Seen as an extension of our Playmakers Youth Theatre program, The J's Performing Arts Camp (PAC) is a place for campers of all experience levels to stretch their imaginations, gain confidence on and off the stage, find their voices, and build lifelong friendships. Through playing a character, singing their hearts out, and nurturing instruction that celebrates each individual’s creativity, PAC campers grow as performers and people.
PAC Programming
PAC campers participate in theater classes and electives, enjoy fun in the sun, swim and express themselves through visual art. Each day, campers in grades K-5 rehearse a play written by Emma Miller, with roles specifically developed to showcase each individual. Our sixth- through eighth-grade campers dive deeply into theatrical storytelling, bringing well-known characters and scenes to the stage. All campers rehearse daily and enjoy specials such as improv and costume design, masterclasses, Scene Stealers, Playmympics, and electives such as hip-hop and a cappella.
J-Kids Camp
Our Pre- and Post-Camp sessions allow kids in grades K-6 to get an early start on the summer with a full day camp experience before J-Day Camps start and after the final session of the summer. Spend a day, several days or the entire week at Safran Park in Beachwood for swimming, sports, crafts and other activities.
