Innovative & Transformative Programming

Waterfront (Agam)

Because Ramah... Invigorates

Camp Ramah’s agam, waterfront, is always full of chanichim (campers) swimming, playing on RUPERT, waterskiing, sailing and canoeing. Campers and staff are able to try new things, deepen their skillset and make memories to last a lifetime. We launched a brand new wakesurfing program which became a huge hit with our older chanichim.

Choice Activities (Chug)

Because Ramah... Creates

There are always a variety of options for chug (elective activity). Campers choose based on personal interests and are encouraged to try new activities such as art, photography, cooking, woodworking, ceramics, hiking and biking. Our brand new climbing wall and ropes course are not only used during the chug perek, but also for team building, peulot tzrif, and yom sport!

Israel Engagement

Because Ramah... Inspires

We proudly infuse Israel and Hebrew into daily life and we welcome our beloved Mishlachat (Israeli contingency) each summer. Our campers engage with Israelis and Israel in meaningful ways through programs, discussions, and all activities in camp.

Ruach (Spirit)

Because Ramah... Ignites

Yom Sport. Shira in the Chadar. Havdalah. Cheering on friends as they climb the wall or score a goal, lead t’filah or perform in Hebrew in a play. Ruach is infused in every part of Ramah Canada and transcends camp and connects our whole community.

Sport

Because Ramah... Challenges

Ramah Canada offers a wide variety of sport options, including basketball, volleyball, baseball, biking, soccer, fitness and more. Campers have a daily sport perek (period), and also use the sports fields and facilities throughout the day for edah competitions, pick-up games, edah peulot and peulot tzrif.

Tripping

Because Ramah... Explores

Campers of all ages participate in our innovative tripping (outdoor camping) program. Our youngest campers begin with an overnight trip and progress to 5-day trips to Ontario's national parks. With the support of staff, campers push themselves to learn skills and accomplish goals such as portaging and hiking. We even have a specialized program, Masa Bateva, the first and only Jewish outdoor experience created to take campers on a journey of Jewish spirituality and outdoor leadership adventure.
