About Camp Weequahic
Since 1953, Weequahic has offered a camp experience full of traditions. Our Friday Night Campfire – which starts with either a Shabbat service or 'Values' service based on the camper's choice – remains our most popular evening activity. Songs are raucously sung twice a day in the Dining Hall. Campers build deep, lasting friendships. Our Color Wars at the end of the Tribal and Olympic sessions originated decades ago and the winning teams can be found adorning our Rec and Dining Halls.
We offer a choice-based program with STEM activities, incredible art and adventure options. Our bunks have instant-hot water heaters so you never take a cold shower. We have a heated pool and an air-conditioned Dining Hall. And Color War includes arts, adventure and aquatic competitions along with all the fun traditional events like Sing, Rope Burn and Bucket Carry.
Before camp starts families tell us the activities they want their campers to enjoy. We then organize each camper's day so that they enjoy those activities with other campers their same age and gender.
Campers enjoy one 'bunk activity' each program day in addition to spending every meal, rest hour, shower hour and evening activity together. We've found a little separation during the day allows our campers to build even better relationships with their bunkmates and camp friends.
