Capital Camps and Retreat Center

Capital Camps & Retreat Center, a member of the Jewish Community Center Association and accredited by the American Camp Association, provides transformative camping experiences to approximately 1,000 campers each summer. Founded in 1987, Capital Camps has enjoyed steady growth and is now at capacity each summer with children ages eight to 17 on a sprawling renovated campus in the Catoctin Mountains of Pennsylvania. The Retreat Center, which hosts approximately 125 groups each year, is a center of learning and rejuvenation for adults, families, and organizations during the fall, winter and spring months.
