To explore all of the fun activities we have at Beth El, click each activity box below.
SWIMMING
Campers enjoy our beautiful, large outdoor pool for morning instruction, taught by our American Red Cross Certified Lifeguards, and refreshing afternoon recreational swim. Younger campers focus on aquatic skills, floating, and developing basic swim strokes. Advanced swimmers work on perfecting their strokes and building strength and endurance.
Campers progress at their own rate, with encouragement and positive reinforcement in a supportive environment. Low camper to lifeguard ratios define our program to ensure skill development and safety.
Sports
Our amazing coaches help our campers play hard and develop athletic skills. Campers can play traditional team sports such as soccer, and try their hand at classic Israeli sports like Gaga. Our Tennis pros engage beginners through advanced players with creative games and drills on our state of the art tennis courts.
Art
Campers engage in a range of art mediums throughout the summer. Forging imagination into reality through progressive skills and detailed instruction, our campers gain the appropriate knowledge to develop new and fun creations from year to year.
Cooking
Campers of all ages learn their way around a kitchen, building skills and gaining a wonderful repertoire of recipes along the way.
Nature + Gardening
Children enjoy a limitless variety of play patterns including construction, pretend play, role-playing and inventing their own games. Most importantly, they are deeply engaged, active and have hours of fun.
Super Special Days
