Unplug, connect, and grow in Yosemite’s wild beauty

Kids unplug and immerse themselves in nature, friendship, and Jewish values. The supportive staff nurture self-confidence and a deep sense of belonging. Families love the inclusive, welcoming atmosphere and the stunning setting. Your child will come home with new skills, cherished memories, and lifelong friends–plus a stronger sense of self and community. Dietary needs are accommodated.
