Summer Programming @ Camp Naivelt
Every year our program committee works to develop and deliver a rich summer schedule of activities for the Camp Naivelt community. Traditionally most programming takes place on weekends with occasional Friday night activities such as movie nights, Saturday afternoon pop-ups including yoga, bagel making workshops, arts and crafts activities and our weekly Sunday bagel brunches with guest speakers on
a variety of topics of interest to the community. In addition, Naivelters are fortunate to have weekly aquafit class in the Eldorado Park pool.
