Everyone in this world needs help with something. This week’s core value is Tikkun Olam, Repairing Our World. When it comes to Tikkun Olam, Rabbi Tarfon taught, it is not your responsibility to finish the work, but neither are you free to desist from it. No one person can fix the world by themselves, but with help from others we can do so much more. This value is something that we practice every day at camp.

Camp Wise offers an incredibly diverse range of programs that meet the desires of every camper. From tubing and SUPboarding on our private lake, to learning to play guitar or throwing a pot, to riding a horse or shooting a basketball kids are able to do the activities they know they love, and try things they never pictured themselves doing.

At Camp Wise, we understand that children of diverse age groups are at varying developmental stages and have different needs while at camp. Unlike many camps who then organize their cabins on a girls side and a boys side we intentionally group our cabins in distinct age-group “villages”.

Camp Wise provides a friendly, supportive, and cooperative atmosphere that fosters individual growth at each camper’s own pace. Campers are encouraged to learn new skills and master old ones, to make decisions, to take responsibility, to be expressive, to live with others, and to have fun. Complemented by our Jewish environment, campers develop a deeper understanding of and appreciation for Jewish heritage and traditions while also developing a true sense of community. Camp Wise is committed to making sure that every camper leaves with a greater sense of self-esteem and self-confidence; and with memories that will last a lifetime.
