Tawonga weekend programs reflect and serve the diverse Jewish community.

Camp Tawonga offers three categories of teen programs, for teens entering 7th - 12th grades.

1. Teen Service Learning
This year, join other teens and great Tawonga leaders for 4 weeks in Israel, working with local communities on important projects, learning about important global issues with local leaders, and touring holy sites. From the Galilee to Jerusalem to Tel Aviv to the Negev, this is a trip not to be missed. Click here to learn more and download an application.

2. "In Training" programs
Do you want to give younger campers the same wonderful experiences that your counselors made for you? Do you have a special talent - music, art, drama, or something else - that you want to take to the next level? Do you love outdoor leadership? One of our "IT" programs may be right for you.

3. Teen Adventure Quests
Quests are like summer camp on wheels!

Tawonga Quests are independent camps on wheels - 12 boys and girls and 2 Tawonga leaders head out for adventures on the road...in the most scenic places on earth!

A Quest is an excellent opportunity to have lots of new adventures, become more independent, and make lifelong friends. Each of the different trips combines backpacking, car camping, water activities like kayaking and rafting, and cultural events like plays and art workshops. Everyone on a Quest works together to:

Set up campsites, tents and kitchens

Cook and clean up after meals

Solve the personal issues that arise when new friends travel together!

Quests are fun and exciting and can be more challenging than summer camp. Most are more physically engaging, and require a higher level of maturity, cooperation and responsibility. River rafting, sea kayaking, and rock climbing experiences are provided by independent outfitters who require their own release and consent forms.experiences are provided by independent outfitters who require their own release and consent forms.
