August Family Camp Packing List

Standard Bunk

This is the classic rustic camp experience! You’ll be staying in one of our regular camper bunks. The only difference is, you’ll have it all to yourself! Each family, no matter how big or small, will have an entire bunk to themselves. You’ll notice there’s lots of room, and you probably won’t use the whole thing. That’s okay, enjoy it!

Details

• Rustic private bathroom with 2 toilets, 2 showers, and 2 sinks – indoors. (We don’t have any “shower houses” at Ramah).
• Electricity, including overhead lights and plenty of outlets
• Camp-style bunk beds. 
• No heating or air conditioning – we will provide fans and recommend that you bring layers to wear at night; it could get chilly!

K’far Nivonim

This is the “village” where our oldest campers live during the summer. The K’far (village) has 2 buildings, each with 4 sleeping rooms and 2 large, shared bathrooms. Each family will be assigned a room to themselves (normally sleeps 10-12 campers), as well as access to a large shared bathroom.

Tikvah Bunks

These are similar to traditional camper bunks, except they have heat, air conditioning, and handicap accessible bathrooms. These bunks are still rustic so you can enjoy the experience of being a camper. Each family, no matter how big or small, will have an entire bunk to themselves. You’ll notice there’s lots of room, and you probably won’t use the whole thing. That’s okay, enjoy it!
