Our Activities

Every day is an opportunity

to do something amazing. Or several somethings.

At Ramah Day Camp,

there’s something for everyone.

Campers enjoy a variety of fun activities designed to teach new skills, build abilities and increase self-esteem. Our talented staff guide campers as they make new discoveries about themselves and the world around them.

Every camper will have the opportunity to participate in all of our camp activities, in an age-appropriate context. Check out all of our great activities below!

Swimming

Campers receive Red Cross swim instruction from our fabulous lifeguard-certified swim staff in the morning and enjoy free swim in the afternoon. Our two heated outdoor pools range in depth from 2-9 feet. Campers have free swim each afternoon.

Sports

Campers practice good sportsmanship, encourage each other to do their best, and build confidence as they participate in our fun-filled sports and games. Baseball, basketball, tennis, lacrosse, volleyball, gaga and floor hockey are just some of the fun sports we play in addition to games such as noodle tag, capture the flag, knock hockey and human “hungry, hungry hippos,” along with many other fun ones!

Creative Arts

Art is all around us at Ramah Day Camp! Our younger campers are exposed to a variety of different media throughout the summer while our older campers can choose to specialize in one area. Some of the media we learn include printmaking, weaving, and pottery. Jewish-themed art projects also enhance the overall Judaic content of our camp.
