Weekly beach trips, mountain biking, and cooking are just a few examples of life at Hess Kramer and Hilltop. These Southern California Reform Jewish camps believe children connect to Judaism best when they do so on their own terms. Rather than any heavily intensive Judaic programming, Judaism is “sprinkled” throughout every fun-filled day at camp. This tradition of campers truly living their Jewish values has been the cornerstone of Kramer and Hilltop for almost 70 years. Through intentionally crafted daily schedules, campers create routines and choose several electives while also engaging in group bonding activities. This leads to lifelong friendships and powerful experiences they simply can’t find anywhere else. Ultimately, this is where children come to discover their individual identities and be embraced by a supportive and inclusive community. It’s simple - each kid is unique - here they get that space to be themselves.
