About Tents

The tents are set on elevated wooden platforms, are water repellant, and are provided with an extra fly to keep them cool during the day and warm at night.  Both the bunks and the tents have electricity and lots of cubby space for comfortable, cozy living in a pleasant, friendly atmosphere. Ask for our video and get a tour of the tents!

Grade 10

Teenage Age Camp (TAC) consists of who are entering 10th grade.  These campers enjoy a separate area of camp.

TAC campers enjoy the coolest in day trips and overnight extended trips.  They enjoy an exciting schedule of activities, they individualize their entire schedule, and choose from activities like softball, soccer, mountain-biking, ceramics, music, woodworking, photography, swimming, boating, and more.  They enjoy late night Oneg Shabbat programming and awesome evening entertainment!
