THIS IS AN OVERNIGHT SUMMER CAMP EXPERIENCE YOU WON'T WANT TO MISS!

Love animals? Our camp is home to a wonderful collection of adorable,furry farm animals including alpacas, camels, rabbits, cows, sheep, goats and donkeys, plus colorful peacocks and plenty of turkeys, chickens and ducks. And they're all eager for your special love and care. Milk the cows, cuddle the baby goats and rabbits and stroke the alpaca's amazing fur. Riding enthusiasts can learn real horse-back riding techniques, or see the world from atop the hump of one of our camels! Bring your camera to capture this unforgettable experience.

Take the plunge on our New 180-foot water slide, and stay cool with our great program of water sports. There's a huge, climate controlled outdoor pool, an indoor pool and professional swimming lessons available. Take a zip-line trip across our sparkling lake, or have fun kayaking, paddle-boating, rowing and bumper boating, with a restful stop-off at our little island gazebo.

Do you have talent just waiting to be discovered?

Learn useful creative skills like crafts, woodworking, music studio techniques, kickboxing, and pioneering. You can even learn to read Hebrew or improve your skills. Everyone can find their way to shine!

Action and adventure are the name of the game on our exciting off-site trips. Our campers enjoy a packed calendar including destinations like Great Adventure, Lake Compounce, Zoom Flume, Laser Tag, Paintball, a Tigers baseball game, and whitewater rafting.  Or, let nature be your destination on one of our fabulous overnights, sleeping in our own tee-pee under the stars.

No matter what your sport is, you'll find it here. You'll feel like a Major Leaguer playing baseball at our brand new Sports Complex, with state-of-the-art 60' high lighting for night games, and a real, professional scoreboard. Practice your shot on one of our five full-size basketball courts, enjoy volleyball, tennis, hockey, soccer -- even sumo wrestling! And on top of all that, you'll absolutely love our ATVs, laser tag and rock wall climbing.

Expect the unexpected with performances by the top stars in Jewish music. Be amazed by the guitar genius, Piamenta, and the mystical talents of a professional hypnotist. Performers come back year after year to entertain our enthusiastic audiences!

Everyone needs a change of pace - even when you're having a great time! So watch out for special programs that are just a little different (and just a little CRAZY), like Water Day, American Day, Campfires, Carnival and the famous BoyZone Staff Play.

When you're here, you're not just at camp -- you're on vacation at a beautiful country hotel! Rolling green mountains, fields bright with wildflowers, clean fresh air and wide-open spaces surround you. And here on the campgrounds, you'll find clean, sun-filled newly renovated buildings, air-conditioned rooms, amazing playing fields, a hotel-style swimming pool and sparkling lake with a brand new pier. Many people travel miles for such a vacation, but as an Oorah camper, you have it all right at your front door!

A Jewish sleepaway camp is the ideal place to find out more about your Jewish roots and traditions. If you've never learned the Hebrew alphabet, here's your chance. If you're already more advanced in your knowledge, you'll have the perfect opportunity to build on what you know with one-on-one learning at your own pace. And there's nothing like a camp Shabbat, filled with singing, dancing and feasting, exciting programs, inspiring stories, plus lots of time to rest and read and charge up the batteries for another great week.

Find out why, when campers are asked what their favorite part of camp is, Shabbat is the handsdown winner!

You won't want camp to end, and with our Kesher program it doesn't have to; Kesher means connection. Your Kesher counselor will keep in touch with you all year long, and you'll join with your favorite counselors and camp friends for get-togethers and TRIPS throughout the school year.
