There are a lot of components that go in to making North Shore Day Camp the best day camp that there is, one of the most important being our Division Leaders. These men and women care and oversee the day-to-day needs of our campers from the moment they bounce off the bus, throughout the day, getting your children back on the bus to go home, and every other moment in between! So we wanted to give you a sneak peak at who you’ll be hearing from shortly right before camp starts. Your Division Leader will be calling you soon to introduce themselves!

Selecting the right camp for your child is both important and impactful. Camp is, for most people, an experience that can last for six or more years (with memories that last for many decades after!) At North Shore Day Camp, we know that such a big decision shouldn’t be made lightly. Our Open House allows your child an opportunity to see what camp is all about, while giving you, as parents, a close-up look at our facilities, program, supervision and philosophy.

Hi, My name is Jeffrey P. I am 14 years old and live in Greenvale, New York. I have been at NSDC since I was a little kid and I am always looking forward to going back each summer. At home and at camp, I love to play tennis. During the school year I am always really occupied between school and tennis. I have 1 dog and his name is Duke. He is a lab chowchow mix. I also have 2 cats named Patches and Scotchie – they’re calico twins which is pretty rare. At camp, I am part of the Voyagers group and I LOVE taking the 4-day overnight trips and being with all my friends.

My name is Lee (on the right) and I’m 19 years old. I’m from Great Neck and I’m currently a sophomore at Quinnipiac University studying print journalism. I came to North Shore Day Camp as a camper back in 2002 along with my brother Mitchell who was in 2nd grade at the time, so I credit and thank my mom and dad for sending us. Little did I know that this place was going to be my second home!
The most important thing to know about me is that I love sports and everyone at camp knows that about me! In 5th grade, my camp nickname was Ripken, because I would wear Cal Ripken Jr.’s jersey twice a week (washed of course – thanks mom!) I’m also a big Mets, Jets, Knicks, and Rangers fan. My brother and I both played baseball each summer while growing up. Many times after the camp day was over, already exhausted by the fun at North Shore, we would hectically rush off the bus, change into our uniforms and be on our way to the diamond. Life was simple then – my responsibilities were to just have fun and be a kid, which I did. I was the captain of my baseball team in high school and playing baseball is still my favorite hobby today.
