A kayitz (summer) at Camp Ramah is a summer filled with magical moments.
For some chanichim (campers) it’s reaching the top of the ropes course for the first time, jumping off the diving board at the breicha (pool), or sitting quietly with friends on the givah (hill) watching one of Ojai’s famous sunsets light up the evening sky. For others, it’s making a masterpiece come to life in omanut (arts and crafts), an exciting round of frisbee golf on Shabbat afternoon, or seeing an entire Torah unrolled end to end for the first time.

SESSION CHANGE FEE
After April 15, 2027, there may be a $100 change fee unless the camper switches from Gesher to a full 4-week session.
Carefully note the session dates you select to ensure your camper(s) can attend camp for the full session. Campers can not come late or leave early for summer school, vacations, or other commitments.
We are aware that in some cases, the end of the Spring semester or the start of the Fall semester conflicts with the camp schedule by a couple of days. We can accommodate families with these conflicts by extending a short window of flexibility for late arrivals or early departures that still allows campers to be with us for all Shabbatot. If this applies to you, please be in touch immediately so that these special arrangements can be made.
