Also known as J Camps, Camp Achva at the Jewish Community Center of Northern Virginia provides fun and formative summer experiences for school-age children from grades K–10. Celebrating its 50th summer, Camp Achva is the premier Jewish day camp in Northern Virginia. As a traditional day camp model, our vision is to create a safe space for campers and staff to learn and grow through building relationships with one another, engaging in meaningful programming, and embracing old and new camp traditions infused with Jewish culture. Through daily scheduling, field trips, special events, and leadership opportunities, campers from our youngest unit (Tzofim) to our oldest (Olim Bet) will look forward to augmented programming each year until they reach CIT-status, and ultimately join our Camp Achva staff.
