At camp, we know that with all the fun and excitement, kids sometimes need a little extra rest and TLC. That’s why we’re excited to introduce our Camp Bubbie Program, designed to provide comfort and a cozy respite — while keeping campers engaged in the Tamarack experience.
Meet our very own Camp Bubbie – Debbie Landau! Debbie is a former Tamarack Camps director (and a real bubbie), with over 30 years of camp connection. She “speaks camp” and specializes in warmth! Several times a week, she will be available to offer needed TLC — whether it’s a quiet break, a cozy story time or game of cards. We’ve created a dedicated space where campers can rest, relax and reset when they need a little breather.
🍜 The “Camp Crud” Menu: Sometimes unwelcome summer colds, which we lovingly refer to as “camp crud,” visit our summer home. For campers feeling a bit rundown, we are creating a special menu of soothing options such as matzah ball soup, toast, hot water with honey and electrolyte drinks — just what campers need to feel better and get back to the fun!
🎁 Camper Comfort Kits: We will have comfort items available including tissues, nasal saline, soothing lozenges, mini honey sticks, hand sanitizer… and, of course, popsicles.
📜 Bubbie’s Tips for Self-Care: A sweet take-home reminder for campers and staff with simple wellness tips to help them recharge. Just like at home, you will feel good when you listen to your body… a little quiet time can go a long way.
At camp, we are mishpacha (family). And when your child needs a little extra TLC, warmth and comfort, we’ve got them covered — just like home. 💙
