Fall Family Camps felt more like a summer escape this year, with the gorgeous weather setting the perfect backdrop for Dad & Me and Mom & Me weekends. Families soaked in all the fun camp has to offer — rock climbing, ziplining, tie-dying, fishing, and even tubing — while celebrating Shabbat and Havdalah around the campfire, complete with s’mores.
Family camp is a hit with everyone! Kids love the activities and counselors (weekends were staffed by last summer’s Teen Leadership Village participants), while parents enjoy learning about camp or, for alumni, reminiscing about their own cherished Tamarack memories. For new families, it’s a great way to experience camp firsthand and ease into their child’s first solo summer adventure.
Best yet, we still have more fall and family camp fun coming up! Join us at an upcoming event:

Camp Maas
Sunday, October 13
Sukkot on the Farm
