JCC Buffalo-Camp Centerland
Located on the Irving M. Shuman Campgrounds, Camp Centerland features hiking trails, open fields, amphitheater, art center, yurt, archery range, basketball court, kickball field, ropes courses, zip line, and climbing tower. Our goal is to help every child thrive at camp, learn new skills, and create lifelong memories and friendships.
With record breaking numbers in 2022, we are taking the Camp Centerland experience to the next level with the addition of specialty camps in art, theater, esports, photography, and dance! Plus, our summer swim team is returning in a big way!
Camp Centerland’s philosophy is rooted in the belief that teaching and demonstrating the Jewish values of Chesed (kindness), Kehillah (community), and Tikkun Olam (healing the world) is as important as splashing in the swimming pool, enjoying a popsicle, or singing favorite camp songs.
