A Note About Re-Opening
Resident camps in California have not yet received the green light to re-open from the California Department of Public Health. We are working with legislators to advocate for our industry and anticipate that we will be allowed to re-open by next summer, however if we are not able to re-open we will offer families the option of a complete refund.
First-Time Camper Grants
If this is your child’s first time going to Jewish sleep away camp for more than 11 days, you may be eligible to receive a $700 or $1,000 grant. These grants are available through One Happy Camper and PJ Goes to Camp. You will find more information on eligibility and how to apply on their websites.
Financial Assistance: Making Camp Affordable
We are committed to ensuring Tawonga is an option for all families regardless of financial constraints. Learn about how to make Camp affordable for your family.
