Camp Philosophy

 

Scholarships

We operate under the principle that every Jewish child deserves an opportunity to spend several weeks at a summer camp. Scholarships are available in accordance with family need. Campers are accepted on a first-come first-severed basis.

 

MORA D’ASRA

Our Manhig Ruchani supervises the curriculum for shiurim. He oversees the kashrus of the kitchen, and is always available for any shailos that the girls may have.

 

STAFF

Our staff is hand-picked to ensure your daughter the finest supervision. Counselors are high school and seminary graduates, and all of our staff is expected to act as role models for our campers. We constantly evaluate staff performance and interaction with the children

 

SOCIAL WORKER

We have two social workers in camp who train counselors in understanding the interactions among campers, and help them to deal with sensitivities that might otherwise go unnoticed.

 

TIPPING

Camp policy does not permit tipping. We expect all campers to be treated equally despite economic status.

 

COMPETITION

Although our campers engage in games that necessarily involve some degree of competition, we ask our staff to stress the importance of enjoying the game for its own sake, no matter who wins. We do not encourage inter-camp competition for this reason
