Welcome
Summer Camp Counselors Arriving on the Virginia Peninsula!
Camp Chaverim, the only Jewish Day Camp on the Virginia Peninsula, has been hosting Israeli Counselors, Schlichim, for more than 15 years! Every summer, we hire two Israeli counselors from the Jewish Agency for Israel.
These young Israelis (usually age 19-22) join our summer staff to represent their country and educate campers about Israeli culture.
