Camp Judaea (NC)

A Little Bit of Israel in the Heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains

Established in 1961, Camp Judaea is a small, Jewish, Israel-centered summer camp community for boys and girls ages 7-15 located in Hendersonville, NC. At CJ, we offer a wide variety of fun activities in a loving family atmosphere allowing campers to grow and even transform themselves every summer they return. Camp Judaea’s small scale allows campers to explore, learn and grow while being surrounded by unconditional love and acceptance. We know and understand each child individually and embrace them in a caring summer family where life-long friendships develop and are nurtured.
