Teen Camp (NJY Camps)
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.

Camp Yavneh
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.
Camp Moshava Wild Rose
Israel. Zionism. Torah Va’Avodah. Aliyah. These words represent the unique mission of Camp Moshava and its affiliate youth movement, Bnei Akiva.
When campers ride through the gates of Camp Moshava, they enter an environment whose essence is defined by history. Not just by the camp’s own history, which dates back to 1939, but by 100 years of modern Zionist history, and by 3000 years of Jewish history.
At Camp Moshava, campers don’t learn Jewish history, they live it.
