​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.

Staff Time Off

Counselors get one period off each day. All staff get one day off per week (except for the first and last week) beginning at wakeup and concluding at curfew (midnight). In addition, staff are permitted to leave camp one other night each week. Staff have rotating night duty.

Staff Qualities

Staff who are interested in health, fitness, nutrition and who generally care about overall wellness. They should be mature and willing to work hard and commit to our campers and take the role of staff member seriously, while having fun!
