B’nai B’rith Camp, located on a lakeside campus of the scenic Oregon coast, is the premier Jewish resident camp in the Pacific Northwest. Since 1921, we have been dedicated to providing the best summer experience for today's campers while preparing them to be tomorrow's community leaders. We strive to teach the values and ethics of Jewish living by example, experience, and creative expression. B’nai B’rith Camp has consistently proven to be a great place for youth to learn about themselves, their Jewish identity, their environment, and how to relate to others.
Serving children ages 7-16 throughout the Pacific Northwest and beyond, B'nai B'rith Camp offers a wide range of activities including: arts and crafts, Jewish enrichment, athletics, water-skiing, sailing, canoeing, hydro-tubing, swimming in our outdoor heated pool, dancing, nature, singing, high- and low-ropes challenge courses, leadership, community service, drama, creative writing, Shabbat celebrations, overnights and trips. B'nai B'rith Camp is licensed by the state of Oregon and accredited by the American Camp Association (ACA).
B.B. Camp's goals for campers include:
• Learning the values and ethics of Jewish living
• Increasing self-reliance
• Developing new skills
• Helping young people grow in a responsible, mature manner
• Creating a democratic group experience within a Jewish atmosphere
B.B. Camp carefully recruits, hires, and trains caring staff that are committed to helping youth build self-esteem, confidence, and strong social skills. In addition, many staff return year after year.
Families are invited to join us for Family Camp in May and/or visit on Visitation Day, scheduled just prior to camp opening, to meet staff and tour the facilities.
B.B. Camp is also available to rent for off-season retreats, Shabbatons, events, and weddings.
