Jewish Camp List
----------------
Most the camps listed below are provide the standard
activity fare - baseball, basketball, arts and crafts,
volleyball, swimming, and other things you might not be in shape
to do now. The special thing about many of them is that they also
provide a Jewish environment. There kids learn to appreciate
their Judaism.
This list has been compiled from various sources. The camps
accomodate children from all backgrounds. Call the camp office to
find out if it's programs, activities and specifics fit your
child's needs. It is best to call them early. If they are full,
ask if they can refer you to another camp or ask about their
second session. The camps may also refer you to satisfied
families to get an outside opinion of the camp.
Many camps have scholarship programs for needy families. The
camps listed here here are all recognized, camps, with staff who
are dedicated to quality Jewish camping. The well being and
development of each child is their primary concern.
