Camp Description:
An international summer camp for youth, ages 13-18, and staff from over 20 different countries. Youth delve into topics and explore the customs, traditions, joys, and hardships of their peers around the world. They learn to respect differences and discover similarities that transcend cultural, religious, political and language barriers. The summer is full of unforgettable conversations, surprises, fast paced soccer games, good food, entertaining evening programs and laughter. In an environment of cooperation, young people are empowered to achieve their personal best and develop a sense of social responsibility. Lifelong friendships, practical skills, new perspectives, and personal triumphs are hallmarks of the program.
