Young Judaea

Jewish overnight camp for teens in Barryville, Sullivan County, run by Young Judaea and organised into grade-specific four-week programmes: Alumim for campers entering 9th grade, Yachad for 10th and Hadracha for 11th. The programme challenges Jewish teens to explore Israel, Jewish pluralism and tikkun olam while developing leadership skills, alongside activity areas, trips and adventures, Shabbat programming and camp-wide events such as Maccabia and Tzedakapalooza. The camp runs a single four-week session each summer; its second session is described on the site as under renovation and was not offered in 2026. Need-based tuition assistance is available by application, a $200 sibling discount applies, and teens who have never attended a Jewish sleepaway camp may qualify for up to $1,500 in One Happy Camper incentive grants.

★★★★★David Morgan

An amazing place full of wonderful people.This is a great place to send your child to summer camp.

★★★★★Jonathan Weinkle

I have attended this camp, worked there, sent two of my kids there and serve on the board? Why? Because the whole arc of my adult life started at TY. Sure, it's in a beautiful setting and I had a blast as a camper, but it's being in a setting where every person and their ideas are valued, that brings together religious and secular, left and right, and gives teens a summer experience where they take on serious issues, lead as much as they are willing to take on, and create a community that endures year round and years long.

★★★★★Adina Frydman

Tel Yehudah is a magical place where teens can be teens in a safe and nurturing environment. It is set in the beautiful mountains near the Delaware River. Some of my best memories are of singing and dancing and hiking in that amazing backdrop. It is also a place that stands for something. A real mission driven camp with a warm and welcoming community feel. Check it out!

★★★★★Ilene Rosenthal WSMG

TY is a place for the ages. A place where teens can be their authentic selves. I speak as a parent of a teen who attended, but also as a camper myself. Teens- and young adults as counselors and staff— discover how to navigate the tough topics, think through diverse opinions, and prepare emotionally and intellectually for the college years ahead.

★★★★★Fanny Korman

My friends from 52 years ago are still in my life! No better place, in the summer,, for a Jewish teen than TY! Tel Yehudah provides a special and fun experience to Teens from around the world in experiential Jewish living central to which is FUN, community building, israel and Tikkun Olam! Every summer teens gather to learn together about who they are and how they can change the world to make it a better place!
