Teen Camp (NJY Camps)

Producing a future generation of leaders to make a difference to the world.

Teen camp or TAC, is a place for campers to thrive while receiving a clear structure and set of boundaries but enough freedom and flexibility to explore new interests and have the opportunity to step up and take on positions of responsibility.

We challenge our TAC campers to think about new ideas, to put themselves outside of their comfort zone and to gain an appreciation for helping and benefiting others. Campers leave completely inspired by the opportunities they have explored and the new ideas they have been exposed to.

Our camp’s focus is on teen leadership, service learning, and international teen tour experiences.

Craig has been with NJY since 2022, with 20 years experience in Jewish Camping, and the last 10 with teen travel. He has a passion for working with teens and helping them develop into young leaders.

Through expertly planned educational, recreational, and cultural experiences, Craig believes TAC provides a foundation to build character, and positive social skills, along with a strong Jewish identity.

“There’s something magical watching young leaders exploring the world around them and I am excited to be a part in their journey of discovery”
