On this page, we’ve gathered questions and answers that came up over the course of information sessions held in advance of Camp Kimama-Bereisheet.

We’d be pleased to answer any additional questions sent to bereisheet@campkimama.org 

 

Are there air-conditioned areas within the campground?

Most camp activities take place in open fields and in nature among the trees, gazebo, and under canopies.  There are two air-conditioned areas which are suitable for activities and we use them as needed.

 

Where are the restrooms located on camp, and what is the level of the facilities?

There are 3–4 restroom facilities located throughout the campgrounds. Bathrooms are available in key areas, including near the auditorium—where we hold shows, ceremonies, and indoor activities—as well as in the swimming area. All restrooms are well-maintained and equipped to accommodate campers comfortably throughout the day.

 

How many camps take place on the grounds alongside ours, and how many children will be on-site in total?
The campgrounds are expansive and carefully divided into separate regions to accommodate different programs without overlap. Alongside Kimama Bereisheet, a U.S. Scouts day camp will be running in parallel, with approximately 50 campers.

Other small camps may also be held on the property for short sessions of 2–3 weeks throughout the summer. However, the total number of children on the campgrounds at any given time will not exceed 300.

​

What rainy-day activities are available?
At the heart of camp is a fully equipped indoor activity center where campers can enjoy a wide range of programs, including climbing wall sessions, movies, performances, dancing, social games, and more.

In addition, we take advantage of rainy days to explore fun indoor outings off-site, such as trips to the movies, bowling, museums, go-karting, and other exciting destinations.
