Summer is a magical time for kids. It's a chance to explore, create lasting memories, and make new friends. At GRIT, we understand that, as a parent of five (5) boys, entrusting your child's care to us is a big decision. That's why we're committed to providing the safest and most fun-filled summer experience possible.
Safety is Our Top Priority
Your child's well-being is our number one concern. Here's what sets GRIT apart:
Red Cross Certified Staff: Our camp directors and many of our staff are CPR and First Aid certified by the American Red Cross. This ensures they have the knowledge and skills to respond quickly and effectively in any situation.
Rigorous Inspections: We go above and beyond! In addition to meeting all State of New Jersey camp requirements and a rigorous pre-camp onsite inspection, GRIT holds itself to a higher standard and is a member of the American Camp Association and their strict safety standards.
Exceeding Staffing Requirements: We don't just meet the New Jersey minimum camper-to-staff ratios – we exceed them! This allows for closer supervision and personalized attention for each child.
Beyond Safety: A World of Fun Awaits
Safety is essential, but it's not the only ingredient! We create a dynamic and engaging environment where kids can:
Explore Nature: Outdoor exploration and nature walks allow campers to connect with the outdoors and learn about the local Jersey City ecosystem.
Embrace Creativity: Arts and crafts, coding workshops, and chess/game classes nurture artistic expression and imagination.
Challenge Themselves: From rock climbing to swimming and team sports, we offer a variety of activities that encourage physical development and teamwork.
Make Lasting Friendships: GRIT provides a unique opportunity for kids to bond with peers over shared experiences and laughter and fun!
Peace of Mind for Parents, Unforgettable Adventures for Kids
At GRIT, we believe that safety and fun go hand-in-hand. With our Red Cross-certified staff, rigorous safety protocols, and commitment to exceeding expectations, you can rest assured that your child is in good hands. We can't wait to welcome them to a summer filled with laughter, learning, and unforgettable adventures!
