Camp Tel Yehudah, the national senior leadership camp of Young Judaea, is deeply committed to Jewish and Zionist values and tradition. Through a dynamic combination of athletics, arts and crafts, the performing arts, and other activities, campers discover the wonders of Israel and Jewish heritage, develop an understanding of what it means to be a part of a community, and learn about themselves as individuals. We are dedicated to laying the foundation for strong, vibrant Jewish leadership in the future. Camp Tel Yehudah is kosher and Shomer Shabbat.

Camp Tel Yehudah offers a range of programs for teens entering grades 9 to 11. Programs are designed to meet the needs and interests of each age group with appropriate activities and experiences, and our age groups, or aidot each enjoy a summer's worth of innovative and interesting programming.

Camp Tel Yehudah is more than a camp. Our program is a total experience which campers will talk about for years to come.
