About the Community

Welcome Alumni

Since 1930, over 5,000 campers and staff have shared the Camp Rising Sun experience. This website was created to welcome, connect and engage CRS alumni of all ages. As alumni, you are our ambassadors around the nation and the world. Your energy and enthusiasm for CRS endure over time. We hope you will use www.risingsun.org to nurture connections and stay involved with the alumni community. Your continuing support of Camp Rising Sun reinforces your partnership with LAJF and the ideal of camper for life.

CRSearch makes it easy to contact old friends and to post a note about yourself. News and photos will spark your interest and your memories. You will find ways to stay involved, individually or through a regional/national alumni association. My View from Tent Hill provides timely commentary and references to year-round activities and Camp through the observations of our staff. There are opportunities to demonstrate the Spirit of Giving through your contributions as well as ways to consider your own personal legacy as a member of the Freddie Jonas Society.

We invite you to explore this website and we hope it will extend the impact of your CRS experience.
