In 1976 Camp Darom was founded by Rabbi Rafael G. Grossman, as a community service of the Baron Hirsch Congregation of Memphis, Tennessee. The first, and still the only overnight camp under Orthodox auspices in the entire South, Camp Darom provides a healthy and spirited camp experience in a unique and traditional
environment.

Over the years, we have attracted campers from the Southern, Midwest, and West Coast States. Our greatest testimonial is the large number of second generation campers we now service. Those who attended our camp in its first years are now sending their own children to receive that same unique experience. While the camp is over a quarter century old, each season is looked at as a unique and independent entity, as we strive to always give our campers a unique experience that they will
remember the rest of their lives.

Nestled on the scenic shores of beautiful Lake Grenada, MS camp offers a combination of all of the traditional and extreme fun camp activities, with a strong focus on a modern orthodox approach to Torah and an emphasis on Zionism and the State of Israel. The mix of fun, excitement and education creates a powerful jewish experience and an atmosphere that has made Camp Darom the place campers return to year after year.

Our daily classes are taught in a lively and interactive way where we show the joy of learning Torah. Yet, perhaps the most special part of Camp Darom is how we create a community which grows together as Jewish People. Our Shabbat experience is both
joyous and inspirational. Shabbat includes fancy Shabbat meals and davening services filled with song and dance.

Camp Darom offers programs for all ages:
