Each gift box listed on our site <a href="https://www.operationholiday.net" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">www.operationholiday.net</a> comes with an ID number, city, total household size, their unique story, and a detailed wish list. You pick an entire wish list and your gifts will be shipped directly to the family or individual you support or in-person delivery. Rest assured, we take care of all the arrangements between you and your recipient to make the process seamless and meaningful.
Once you've made the heartwarming decision to adopt a family, we'll provide you with their details, enabling you to start planning and shipping their holiday gifts. And, for those who wish, there's always the option to adopt anonymously.
This Christmas let’s spread love and joy and make a profound difference. Make the choice – participate in Operation Holiday 2024, helping us transform lives and spread happiness.

Meadowbrook Country Day Camp

Long Valley, NJ – Prospective camp families are invited to attend a fun and information Open House at <a href="https://www.meadowbrookdaycamp.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Meadowbrook Country Day Camp</a>​ on Sunday, January 5th, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., at the camp, which is located at 73 East Valley Brook Road, in Long Valley, NJ. Spots are closing fast! To reserve a time slot, please call 908-876-3429, or send an email to <a href="mailto:marty@meadowbrookdaycamp.com">marty@meadowbrookdaycamp.com</a>.
All prospective families will be welcomed via an information session with the camp’s directors and Leadership Team and will take a tour of the campus.
“This is a great way to tour Meadowbrook’s beautiful campus and learn what we are all about,” said Owner Mason Goldberg.
Meadowbrook is an American Camping Association (ACA) accredited Day Camp located on a 50-acre wooded campus in Long Valley, just outside of Chester.
Meadowbrook’s day-camp program serves children ages 3-15, with a travel program for those entering grades 7, 8 and 9. Meadowbook also offers before-care and after-care hours from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.








The camp provides a unique focus on building life skills; a Red Cross swim program in heated pools; kid-friendly, healthy lunches served every day; boating; mountain biking; sports, ropes courses; and exciting and creative themed weekly special events at camp and on buses.
One thing that is unique to Meadowbrook is that all tips are included in tuition and there are no extra costs later on.
Also, very unique to MCDC is the exclusive offer of DOOR-TO-DOOR BUS TRANSPORTATION, which means smaller vehicles, more spirited rides to camp led by our bus counselors, and an easier logistical morning when being picked up at your home! Routes include Morris, Essex, Union, Sussex, Warren, Hunterdon, Middlesex and Somerset counties.
Activities include: Swim Instruction based on the Red Cross Skill Levels and Free Swim in a 9,000-square-foot pool complex with three heated pools, Archery, Tennis, Basketball, Softball, Soccer, Cooking, Dance, Lacrosse, Flag Football, Nature, Fishing, Newcomb, Challenge Courses, Canoeing, Kayaking, Paddle Boats and Bumper Boats on a private lake, Gymnastics, various Arts &amp; Crafts, Hockey and more.
There are also some unusual activities like Mountain Bikes, Mountain Boards, Ultimate Frisbee, Tapu-aie, GaGa, Handball, Speedball, Chocolate, Arcade, Bonfire Cooking, Earth Wind &amp; Fire, Rocketry and so much more.
In addition, Meadowbrook offers travel camps for children going into grades 7-9 comprising days spent at camp mixed with day trips to places like Dutch Springs Waterpark, Coastal Sports, The Game Vault, Camel Beach, Mountain Creek, Six Flags Great Adventure, Combat Sports, Yestercades, Laser One, Aspen Ice, Rock Quarry Swim Club, Medieval Times, The Gravity Vault, Broadway Shows, Circle Lanes and more, as well as Community Service Day Trips and Overnights.
Also, Meadowbrook instills campers and staff with a culture of “TIGER” core values (Teamwork, Integrity, Generosity, Enthusiasm and Respect).
“We encourage our campers and staff to practice TIGER values during the summer and to take these values with them, after camp has ended, back home and back to school,” said Goldberg, whose own children are campers at Meadowbrook.
Meadowbrook is a camp like no other, reserve your spot at the Open House -- today!
