The Valley of the Sun JCC in Scottsdale will host a special “Family Fun Weekend” on Saturday, April 1 and Sunday, April 2. The public is invited to attend, both members and non-members.

April 1 is “A Night to Remember Dance.” Families with children, ages 4 and up, are invited to dance the night away together at “The J” from 6–8 p.m. There will be live music, games, appetizers, refreshments and a photo booth. Advance tickets are $25 per person, $35 at the door.

April 2 is Hero for a Day 5K and Superhero Fun Run, as well as a Shemesh Camp get-together.

Children ages 3 and up are invited to put on their superhero capes and lace up their running shoes to join the battle against pediatric brain cancer. The J has partnered with the nonprofit Hudson Heroes for a day in the name of supporting brain cancer research. Events will include a 5K and Superhero Dash. All proceeds will benefit Hudson Heroes.

The J’s summer day camp program, Shemesh Camp, will also host an event for families 3–5 p.m. on April 2 at the Scottsdale KTR Indoor Action Sports Playground. Children will get to jump, skate, dodge and tumble through the end of the weekend with Shemesh Camp. The cost is $24 per child for two hours; $47 for a family pass (two adults, five children).

Advance registration is not required, just show up and mention Shemesh Camp at check-in. KTR is located at 9009 E. Talking Stick Way in Scottsdale.
