OVERNIGHT CAMP

Gan Israel Overnight has provided the finest in recreational activity within an environment of living Judaism, for nearly two decades. Our unique physical and cultural programs have been instrumental in developing our campers appreciation for the outdoors as well as a greater awareness of their Jewish identity. Children learn that living away from home can be a fun-filled adventure, as well as a wonderful learning experience. It is also a time to take on more responsibilities, and to learn and enjoy activities that are not normally available at home. Many parents remark on how much their child has matured in the short time they have been at Gan Israel. As hundreds of former campers agree, Gan Israel provides happy memories that will last a lifetime.
