Camper Program:

It’s all about the campers at Camp Darom. From the minute they get on the bus heading for Natchez Trace State Park, camp begins. Every day is loaded with activities and programming. Camp Darom is especially fitting for first-time campers. The warm, homey environment at camp makes it easy for the camper to fit-in and enjoy themselves.

The session includes exciting weekly trips both in and out of state, with a final weekend Shabbaton at a resort hotel in Mississippi. This has been one of the major highlights of camp in the past. The session also includes in-camp activities such as Color War, Israeli Army Day, Nature Day, BBQ/Kumzitz’s, and Israel Day.

During the course of the month the campers will also have the opportunity to participate in special activities within the park. These include Horseback Riding, Canoeing, Paddle Boating, and Hayrides.

Every day the campers are able to choose from a wide array of specialized activities, known as Chugim. The carefully tailored Chugim tap into the creativity of each child. Campers are able to choose from sports, drama, Israeli army, arts and crafts, guitar, and Torah reading (for our pre-Bar Mitzvah campers), each led by a highly-skilled staff member.
