Overview
Welcome aboard a journey of tradition, values, and joyous memories at Camp Tevya. This delightful haven, with its roots in 1940 and founded by Eli and Bessie Cohen, offers a rich camping experience that goes beyond the ordinary. A splendid expanse of 600 acres, kissed by the waters of Lake Potanipo in Brookline, New Hampshire, forms the perfect backdrop for countless tales of fun and friendship.
Camp Tevya is more than just a summer getaway – it's a co-ed camp where children not only revel in fun activities but also grow and develop. The camp fosters a nurturing family atmosphere that encourages campers to stretch their wings, learn new skills, and embrace the essence of community living. The varied menu of land and water sports, creative and performing arts, ensures there’s something for everyone.
Moreover, the camp is imbued with the spiritual and ethical values of Judaism, adding another enriching layer to the campers' experience. The rhythmic patterns of Israeli dance, the harmonious notes of music, and the exploration of Judaic themes are all part of the vibrant tapestry of life at Camp Tevya. The day starts with blessings, punctuated by more before and after every meal, culminating in a weekly celebration of the Sabbath, filled with ruach (spirit) and joy.
At the end of the day, Camp Tevya isn’t just about summer fun. It’s about building strong characters, forming lifelong friendships, and creating a treasure trove of memories. So, let your children embark on this exciting journey where they will learn, grow, and most importantly, have a whole lot of fun!
