Answer the call of the wild! The Weinstein JCC is now offering the chance for your teen to enjoy the great outdoors with a variety of activities. From hiking in the Shenandoah National Park system, to testing their balance at a high ropes course, to shredding the dirt on a mountain bike, your teen will have a chance to enjoy what Virginia really has to offer outside. Each trip will have equipment provided for your child, so no need to worry about sending them with anything other than a lunch if necessary. Snacks, drinks, and an engaging day will always be provided!

We will be celebrating the Festival of Lights, under black lights! Middle Schoolers should come wearing white clothing that they will personalize and decorate with highlighters and glow-in-the-dark paint, for an awesome glow-in-the-dark effect. We’ll have a DJ, fun games, Chanukah themed activities, latkes and sufganiyot.

Teens in grades 6-8 will be hitting the slopes to enjoy skiing or snowboarding. Never been skiing/snowboarding before? Not a problem, all levels and abilities are welcome. The price of the trip includes a lift ticket, rentals, lessons and snacks. Please bring a bag lunch.
