Summer Stars at Scarsdale Synagogue is the perfect place for your child's first camp experience. This warm and nurturing program is a seven-week camp for children 18 months to 5 years old. The campers are engaged in activities such as sports, music, art, story time, daily water play, and much more. There are special theme days each week such as Circus Day, Hawaiian Day, or Carnival Day. At Summer Stars, friendships are formed and children grow socially, emotionally, and intellectually as they engage in fun, stimulating summer activities. Summer Stars offers a three-day option for toddlers ages 18 to 30 months, and two year olds may choose 3 or 5 mornings a week. Three to five year olds may choose a half-day (9 AM-12 PM) or full day (9 AM-2 PM) option.

The camp continually adjusts its program’s policies and procedures to align with the current guidance from state agencies to keep your children safe and healthy during this pandemic.  

With Summer Camp in the Hill, you can create the camp of your dreams right here in Murray Hill. Sports, games, exploration, and creation come together for a summer filled with fun! By combining Hi-Five Sports and 116Kids, Summer Camp in the Hill offers all of the activities your children love at a price you can’t beat in NYC.

Your children can combine all of the activities that the two programs offer for a full day of fun, or they can focus on one program for a half day tailored specifically to their interests.

Summer Camp in the Hill is open to all children age 5 through those entering 5th grade. Children are grouped by age and sometimes by ability to ensure that their activities are appropriate and engaging.

Kids belt out show tunes, create scripts, become songwriters, take master classes with Broadway stars, and perform in a show on stage in these fun and stress-free summer programs! All sessions are led by Broadway Bound Kids professional teaching artists who customize programs to fit the individual needs and skills of the students so that each child gets their own chance to shine.

Inspired by Hamilton, Hamil-Tunes is a brand new week-long program that will help students discover parts of the past that are begging to leap from the page onto the stage. In the 2-week program Kids on Broadway, students perform in an original musical review featuring songs from Broadway shows, movie musicals, and animated hits such as Moana, Matilda, Peter Pan, Frozen, Annie, and many more. Advanced 4th-10th graders can perform in BBK's summer 2017 musical, Willy Wonka Jr.

Kids will make incredible memories that last a lifetime!
