Camp Overview
Camp Zeke is an overnight summer camp for 7 to 17 year-olds that focuses on active healthy living, joyful Judaism, culinary arts and organic food. Campers choose from fitness, athletics, and culinary electives while being immersed in a community of peers who are dedicated to leading a vibrant, joyful, and energized lifestyle. Our elective-based program allows campers to focus on personal goals, such as running faster, becoming stronger, getting better at sports, or learning to cook impressive dishes. The type of healthy living that campers experience at Zeke has a positive impact on every aspect of their lives, from happiness to academic success. After a few summers in our warm, mentor-filled community, kids build a commitment to wellness that becomes part of their Jewish identity, and they live Zeke’s lessons for the rest of their lives.
