ABOUT US

"Eddie I" is a warm and friendly Jewish Sleepaway Camp. Located in the foothills of the Taconic Mountains in Dutchess County, beautiful Camp Edward Isaacs is only 70 miles from New York City. Our campers come from all over New York State as well as from neighboring states; Florida and California, too. We are proud to be an international summer camp, with campers and staff from Israel, France, Argentina and other countries. Eddie I campers have friends all over the world!

A kosher Jewish residential camp serving boys and girls ages 7-16, our ideal size (only 200 campers!) our experienced staff (4 to 1 camper to staff ratio!) and more than 40 years of Jewish summer camp tradition create a caring and sharing family atmosphere.

Summer camp at “Eddie I” is an extraordinary experience in Jewish camping and community, where value and values meet, and fun and friendship begin.

MISSION STATEMENT

The mission of Camp Edward Isaacs is to provide our campers with a  safe, nurturing Jewish camp experience and a well rounded quality program that places an emphasis on fun, friendships, self-esteem, and skill development.  By exposing our campers to the beauty of our Jewish heritage, we provide them with magical memories that will strengthen their Jewish identities.
