What to expect during the weekend

We welcome families to our beautiful facility in Wayne County, PA to celebrate our core Jewish values: being kind to others, taking care of our health, and welcoming new members of the community. Spending a weekend at Camp Zeke will bring Jewish families together for a joyful Jewish experience, and give your children opportunities to make friends with other Jewish kids and connect with other HMI alumni. Families will take part in Jewish rituals, celebrate Jewish values, and create new family traditions. We will provide healthy, gourmet meals with a variety of options for our guests of all ages. Participants should expect a weekend filled with great food, enriching activities, and new friendships.

COVID policies and safety

Knowing that our Family Camp weekends are happening at different times during the year and that the COVID landscape is rapidly changing, we will adapt our COVID protocols so that we provide the safest environment possible. Outdoor dining under a tent will always be an option. We will determine our specific pre-weekend testing and masking procedures as each weekend gets closer, based on the CDC guidelines, Pennsylvania regulations, and other important public health guidance. At this time, a COVID vaccine is not required to attend the weekend.
