As we approach our 14th summer at Pioneers Camp and the 6th summer of our Girls’ division, Chavaya Vermont, we reflect on our commitment to providing more than just a traditional camp experience. Our programs are designed to equip Jewish youth with essential life skills within an enriching Torah environment, fostering personal growth and a deep connection to Hashem through nature and amazing outdoor experiences.
Pioneers Camp: Building Leadership and Self-Reliance
At Pioneers Camp, we offer a Jewish wilderness program for boys aged 9 to 16, focusing on leadership, teamwork, and of course fun. Our campers engage in activities that challenge them physically and mentally such as bushcraft, paintball, fire making, shelter building, fishing, scuba diving, awesome trips, sports and many more exciting activities. The program emphasizes survival skills and personal responsibility, ensuring that each camper leaves with a sense of accomplishment and confidence. The warm environment, Farbreging around a campfire each night and shabbos in the Green Mountains makes memories for a lifetime. Pioneers will be lead by Head Counselor Aaron Shemtov and the amazing team he has put together.
Chavaya Vermont: Empowering Young Jewish Women
Chavaya Vermont is a skills-based camping program for young Jewish women aged 9 to 16. Our mission is to help campers actualize their true potential through learning new skills and immersing themselves in nature. Activities include survival and wilderness skills, swimming, hiking, farming, art, and weekly trips, all designed to foster personal growth and a love for the outdoors. Chavaya’s Head Counselor this summer is Liba Posner who has been part of the Chavaya family for many years.
