Camp Veritans Day Camp
For more than 75 years, Camp Veritans Day Camp has been a place where summers are filled with laughter, friendship, and meaningful growth. Located in Haledon, New Jersey, our American Camp Association–accredited day camp provides children with a safe, joyful environment to explore, discover, and thrive.
Rooted in Jewish values, Camp Veritans is a welcoming and inclusive community where every child is celebrated for their unique spirit. We foster a culture of respect, belonging, and unity, helping campers build confidence, develop leadership skills, and form friendships that last a lifetime. Our commitment to celebrating diversity and promoting kindness ensures that every family feels at home.
Each summer from late June through mid-August, campers enjoy full days filled with swimming, athletics, creative arts, specialty programs, and outdoor adventures. We believe in the power of healthy risk-taking, teamwork, and hands-on experiences to nurture independence, resilience, and a growth mindset.
Safety, support, and professionalism are at the heart of our program. Camp Veritans maintains on-site security personnel and has received grant funding through the Department of Homeland Security to enhance our infrastructure and security measures. A registered nurse is on-site, and a licensed social worker is part of our camp community, supporting both campers and staff to ensure social-emotional well-being throughout the summer.
Our leadership team brings deep experience in education and child development. Most members of our administrative staff are professionals in the field — including general and special education teachers, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), and a school social worker. This educational expertise shapes our approach to programming, inclusion, and staff training, helping us create an environment where every child can succeed.
Camp Veritans proudly offers all-inclusive tuition, providing families with clarity and peace of mind. There are no hidden fees — daily transportation, nut-free snacks, a hot kosher lunch with dessert, all programming and special events, and trips for traveling units are included in the cost of camp. Once summer begins, your child can focus on fun, friendship, and growth — and you can feel confident knowing they are in caring, capable hands.
Camp Veritans is proudly owned and operated by the Veritans Club, a philanthropic organization founded in Paterson, New Jersey in 1927. For generations, dedicated volunteers have upheld a shared mission: to provide a safe, nurturing place where children can play, grow, and experience the very best of summer.
At Camp Veritans, we don’t just create summers — we build confidence, community, and lifelong memories.

Camp Bauercrest
Camp Bauercrest is a boys’ overnight camp on the scenic shores of Lake Attitash in Amesbury, Massachusetts. Since 1931, we’ve offered a dynamic summer experience where sports are at the heart of camp life, alongside waterfront adventures, creative activities, and meaningful Jewish traditions. While we often say Bauercrest is a place where boys can just “B,” what we truly mean is it’s a place where boys can just “B” their best selves. Our campers build lifelong friendships and character through spirited games, teamwork, and leadership both on and off the field. With a supportive staff, many of whom are former campers, we foster a sense of brotherhood and belonging. Whether competing in a tournament or relaxing by the lake, every day at Bauercrest is an opportunity for growth, fun, and self-discovery. Join us and become part of a tradition that’s more than just a camp, it’s a family.
