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.

Located in Northwood, NH, Camp Yavneh is committed to providing a K’lal Yisrael experience in a camp environment where all aspects of life reflect Jewish values. A place for Jewish learning and a fulfilling camp experience for all Jewish children.

Yavneh is one of a few Jewish camps not affiliated with a denomination and our families span all backgrounds and affiliations of Judaism. We believe that dedication to the Jewish people, to Israel and to being a member of a Jewish community are essential to pass on our masoret (tradition). These values are instilled through day-to-day interactions among madrichim (counselors), chanichim (campers) and tzevet (staff), and are reflected in camp-wide activities.

What makes Yavneh unique is our ability to create a cohesive community not separated by differences in practices. We encourage all chanichim to share in our rich Jewish traditions and we help equip them become an active part of the larger Jewish community with a greater respect and understanding of all Jews. This deepens their understanding of Jewish life and traditions, while helping them gain an appreciation for, and understanding of, alternative points of view concerning observance and philosophy.

Tel Yehudah’s dynamic program builds leadership skills and motivation, social responsibility, critical thinking and life-long commitment to Israel and the Jewish People. Our teens enjoy athletics, music, arts and crafts, hiking, performing arts, experiential education, out-of-camp trips and many other activities. Located on 150 beautiful wooded acres on the banks of the Delaware River in Barryville, New York, Tel Yehudah draws campers and staff from across the United States, United Kingdom, Israel and increasingly, around the world. We reach out to all Jewish youth, regardless of affiliation, to create a vibrant, pluralist community where each participant grows personally in the context of a strong and supportive community.
