A Warm and Welcoming Environment
For All Campers

Our enriching traditional camp program includes a variety of activities, such as art, makerspace, sports, swimming, cooking, and more. This diverse schedule allows campers to explore new skills and experiences while making lifelong memories with their friends. 

Dive Into Summer Fun!

Incoming K-10th grade campers explore a variety of activities including swimming, sports, art, STEM, cooking, and much more. Campers are divided into units based on their age group to ensure programming is tailored to their level and needs.  

Additionally, there will be four (4) all-camp field trips, giving campers the chance to explore The Valley in a safe and fun manner.

Our Units Include:

A 1:6 staff-to-camper ratio ensures personalized care in a nurturing environment. Activities include four (4) water sessions per week featuring one swim lesson, splash pad time, and free swim. 

A 1:8 staff-to-camper ratio, campers explore their interests, discover new talents, and enjoy Chugim (electives) tailored to their preferences. 

A 1:8 staff-to-camper ratio, campers can try new activities, develop skills in areas they love, and enjoy a summer with new and old friends. 

A 1:10 staff-to-camper ratio, campers select their weekly activities, participate in weekly field trips, and engage with community organizations through mitzvah (volunteer) projects. 

High school campers focus on developing leadership and life skills in a fun and supportive environment. These “counselors in training” spend a part of their day practicing their new skills by assisting younger campers in their activities.
