According to the Foundation for Jewish Camp, Camp presents your child the opportunity to mature and gain independence, to learn social skills, and explore personal interests. At Jewish camp, daily activities are often enriched by Jewish values and the culture of Judaism. Jewish camp weaves Jewish values, culture, and traditions into the fabric of camp, helping campers to connect to their own identity and the larger Jewish community. Jewish and Israeli culture is celebrated through song, food, art, and dance. Some camps use and teach Hebrew to make Judaism come alive. There are a variety of traditional and specialty overnight camps that span different denominations of Judaism, accommodate special needs in myriad ways, and offer unique programming, catering to each family's needs.
