General information
Avoda is a Jewish sports camp for boys. Avoda brotherhood, leadership, spirit, and tradition are among the most distinctive and unique aspects of the Avoda experience. Your son will arrive with uncertain expectations and leave with indelible memories. Campers have fun in a safe and supportive environment while building confidence and character. They will learn to work with others to solve problems and overcome challenges, and be valued for who they are.
There’s so much that Avoda can offer a Jewish boy. You’ll arrive with uncertain expectations and leave with indelible memories. At Avoda, you’ll discover talents you didn’t know you had, and improve your skills in the activities you love. You’ll build confidence and character, learn to work together to solve problems and overcome challenges, and be valued for who you are.
We know what Avoda will do for you. But what will you do while at Avoda? After all, it takes great campers to make a camp great. We look forward to having your spirit, your energy, and your voice at Camp Avoda. Sure, we are proud of our program, but your participation is what will make our program special.
Summer camp is a team sport, and whether by bunk, division, team, or the whole camp together, we support each other, learn from each other, and feel connected to each other. Camp pride and Avoda spirit are forged naturally from daily teamwork, shared experiences, and friendships that are easily made yet stand the test of time.
When our campers and staff see our sign at the end of Gibbs Road, or wear their Avoda t-shirts or beanies, there’s a strong sense of belonging and identity that makes every day at Avoda special – and keeps the campfires burning in their hearts all winter long. That’s true brotherhood, and that’s what Avoda is all about.

Food and dining
Our Chef, Scott Rubeck, provides the Avoda family with nutritional and consistently, great food. Don’t miss our great weekly outdoor barbeques (You don’t want to miss our corn-on-the-cob and freshly baked brownies!). All of our meals are kosher, and we can accommodate all campers’ dietary needs including food allergies.
In addition to our chef prepared meals, we always have fresh fruit, a salad bar, fresh baked goods and other camper favorites! Every afternoon and evening, we also have Snack Time where campers and counselors take a break from the day’s activities and enjoy a quick bite to eat.
