Shemesh Camp: Ruach (Spirit)

Grades 6-8
Our oldest campers get to focus on a more mature camp experience. Our tweens and young teens want a day that allows for socialization and flexibility. We fill Ruach’s day with innovating and exciting activities – from fitness, cooking, electives, science, sports, tween lounge and more. Plus they will have weekly field trips filled with adventure and mitzvah (volunteer) projects.

Shemesh Camp

We are here for our entire community! Serving campers entering Grades K-10, Shemesh offers a taste of all things fun during summer! From swim lessons to archery, to Maker’s Space programming and tween adventures, we are here to offer campers memories that will last a lifetime. With low staff to camper ratios, Shemesh provides a safe summer home where campers are encouraged to try new activities, gain new skills, build self-confidence, have limitless laughs and build forever friendships.

  • The mission of Shemesh Camp is to build a community for children through fun, social and cultural experiences that inspire excitement for on-going adventure.
