Mrs. Draizy Junik
Camp Director

Welcome! Having grown up right in the area, I have spent many summers as a camper and then counselor at Gan Izzy. We are lucky to be in a city full of opportunities where we can incorporate numerous adventurous outdoor experiences into our program.

I look forward to spending the summer with your children and giving them a very enriching Jewish experience!
