Jewish Life at Camp

Shabbat

Last updated on 01 Apr, 2025

At Eden Village, we make Shabbat a party. On Friday, we get ready by making challah, harvesting flowers, creating skits and more. Once the musical Shabbat parade begins, we relax and celebrate. After fun and soulful services, we come together for a gourmet feast and singing into the night. On Saturday, campers start off the day by choosing from a variety of options including yoga, meditation, singing Shabbat morning prayers, or spending some quiet time in nature. All of camp then comes together for a short, theatrical Torah service. Before lunch we have some time to relax on the beach, go swimming or boating, or play in a sports tournament. After an amazing Shabbat lunch, we have extended afternoon Shmooze options with relaxing Shabbat-friendly activities. We end Shabbat with a magical Havdalah dance party under the stars.
