Do you have camper-aged children who are curious about camp? Do you miss camp and want to experience GFC with the entire family? Join us at GFC for our Family Getaway! This is an opportunity for the whole family to experience GFC for the weekend. Families will enjoy celebrating Shabbat, signing around the campfire, ziplining through the air, and experiencing the best of what camp has to offer. Family Getaway is a great opportunity to get a taste of camp. During this all-inclusive weekend, campers of all ages are housed with their parents but will have their own group of similar age campers to share in activities and programming.
