Camp Zeke is the first and only overnight camp where kids celebrate healthy, active living through fitness, cooking, sports, farm-to-table gourmet food, and joyful Judaism.

Everything we do is based on a set of core values, including being kind to others, building character, taking care of our health, and welcoming new members of the community. Our campers earn bracelets throughout the summer for displaying the camp’s values during the camp day.

So whether a camper wants to run faster, get stronger, zen out in yoga, perform circus acrobatics, play soccer or baseball against another camp, or cook impressive dishes, they can create their perfect day by picking from countless options. Our campers go home with new cooking, fitness, arts and sports skills along with a commitment to kindness, healthy living, and joyful Judaism that will stick with them for years after the experience.

Of course, campers also build lifelong friendships with like-minded peers and find role models in the kindest staff, who become friends and mentors for life. After campers grow up in our warm community, they join the Teen Leadership Program and, ultimately, the Camp Zeke staff.

At Camp Zeke our activities fall into six different areas.  We offer an evolving program in which our youngest campers rotate among camp’s different activities, older campers have an elective schedule, and teens take a leadership role in the community.

Our dedicated coaches oversee training sessions at camp, referee games that take place at Zeke, and cheer on campers when we play against other camps.

Whether you come to try a new sport for the first time or improve your conditioning for a varsity team, our strong curriculum and warm team atmosphere will help you excel!

We’ll show you how to transfer skills from diverse fields like running (speed), strength training (power), and yoga (balance) into added confidence on the soccer field, basketball court, and beyond.

Love the fun and excitement of a great volley? Want to make your school team (or help bring home a big W)? Whatever a camper’s looking for, whether it be a good game or personal growth  — our engaging atmosphere creates this inclusive opportunity. With two sand courts, and a passionate and dedicated coach, our campers are able to strengthen their individual skills through drills and games. Also, you can always catch (and join) a fun game of newcomb!

Both our baseball and softball programs are built on strategy, skill development, sportsmanship, and the fun of playing the game. No matter a camper’s skill level, we’ve created a learning environment that makes anyone feel excited to play. With the benefits of small-group instruction, our coach focuses on the critical elements: outfield and infield foundations, advanced pitching, base running techniques, hitting and team-building.

Soccer is one of the most popular sports at Camp Zeke. Due to our amazingly experienced and talented coaches, our soccer program is designed for all — advanced, intermediate and junior players. This innovative program cultivates a warm team atmosphere which strengthens our ability to elevate skills to a whole new level. Coaches pro-actively challenge campers to exceed their potential through drills focused on offensive and defensive skills, dribbling, shooting, passing and team development.
