Mission

All Jewish denominations agree on certain values fundamental to Judaism. Rather than focusing on our style of observance, Camp Nageela focuses on imparting core Jewish values in a way that sparks our campers interest to take pride in their Jewish identity. In this way, children from every background feel comfortable and welcomed. What’s more, the experience will help your child develop confidence, pride and most important – joy - living as American Jews. A proud and self-confident child will become a productive and caring adult, one who is there for family and to serve the community.

Nageela camps feature excellent facilities, many personal comforts, and quality, caring staff. Campers feel at home in their camp surroundings with both personal and emotional comfort. The Nageela programs are well-known for their ability to combine traditional favorites, skill building activities and new, original surprises- Nageela campers anxiously await the ‘breakout’ of each year’s camp theme and logos. Nageela staff members are chosen for their passion in encouraging children to have fun and appreciate their Jewish identity. Our staff practices Traditional Jewish observance and live by its values of caring, warmth, and joy of living. Kids love that the staff is so much fun; parents love that their children have positive role models to respect. For many of our camper families, these role models are the best part of the Nageela experience.
