Camp Operating

Recent research has made it clear that Jewish camp is the most transformative activity for Jewish youth, creating a strong sense of Jewish identity and commitment in our young people. It is a life-changing experience,a lifelong inspiration to connect with and contribute to Jewish community. Camp JRF represents an investment in the future of the Reconstructionist movement and the Jewish People.

Camp Scholarship Program

A key precept of Reconstructionism is inclusivity. We are committed to offering the camp experience to every child who wants to come. We do this by offering sessions of various lengths at different price levels,and making scholarships available when needed. We invite individual members of the movement and congregations to contribute to the Camp JRF Scholarship Fund on special occasions. A lovely tribute card will be sent both to the donor and the family or individual honored by such gifts.

Annual gifts to fund full sessions include:

  • $1,800 sends a first-time camper to a special 10-day introductory experience
  • $2,700 covers the cost of one session
  • $3,600 covers the cost of a full summer
