Jewish Summer Camps 

 

Jewish summer camps are about so much more than canoes, campfires, and time away from home. Our community’s Jewish summer camps weave together Jewish values, culture and traditions into the fabric of camp, helping campers to connect to their own identity and the larger Jewish community – while having summer camp experiences they will cherish for a lifetime.
