CGI Camp Gan Israel

CGI Camp Gan Israel offers Jewish girls a top-quality overnight camp experience in a beautiful setting. Camp sessions are for 2 or 4 weeks.

“Gearing up for the biggest summer yet in 2022, CGI Poconos is in the midst of many large-scale renovations and upgrades to its already beautiful campgrounds. From brand new beds and mattresses to building state-of-the-art staff accommodations, campers and staff will be able to enjoy the 83-acre campground like never before.”

CGI in the Poconos provides a truly meaningful experience for girls entering 3rd-10th grades with a public-school or day-school background. CGI Poconos strives to deepen its campers’ understanding of what it means to enter adulthood as a strong, self-confident teen. The small-group setting envelops campers in a close-knit family environment that supports friendships and the creation of compelling moments that campers will be inspired by forever.

There are 3 levels of campers: Junior Camp, for 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades, The Bat Mitzvah Experience, for 6th and 7th graders, and The Teen Experience, for grades 8 – 10. Scholarships are available to all levels.

In 2022, CGI Camp Gan Israel launched their first-ever 10-day winter camp, building on the success of the past decade in summer overnight camping. For 10 fun-filled days, the girls will experience the CGIP spirit, enjoying daily trips, skiing, snow tubing, baking, sports, indoor heated pool, game rooms, and of course, the famous New York trip.

CGI Poconos’ trips are highlighted by an annual Jewish Pride trip to New York City and Crown Heights, Brooklyn, headquarters of Chabad Lubavitch. Each summer campers can also look forward to the amusement park trip. In addition, the camp is located in the heart of the Pocono Mountains, allowing many local mini-trips. Favorites are Dingmans Falls, and canoeing down the Delaware River.

“I stumbled upon this camp while attending a conference. I met Director Sandler and his wife and just knew that this would be the camp for my girls.There are not enough words to express how amazing this camp is. Both of my daughters have attended this camp for many years and have come out thriving. They are now the C-teen leaders of our chapter & their Jewish pride is incredible. CGI Poconos not only gave them amazing summer experiences, but it also gave them Ruach, friends for life and made them part of an extended family that to this day continues to meet up and speak every day. Both the Director and his team go out of their way to make a girl’s summer camp experience one they will hold dear for all of their lives. You will never be sorry you sent them to Camp CGI Poconos!”
