DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE

My first personal experience at Camp Kinneret-Biluim was in the summer of 1982. Like most campers of yesterday and today, I was a bit nervous about the fact that I was coming to a new place where the only other person I knew was my twin brother, and he was just as nervous as I was. I remember telling my mother that I didn’t want to board the bus. She pointed toward another camper that was listening to the same music that I liked and said, “I think you’ll be fine”. Suffice to say, my mother was right. After only six weeks, I was brimming with a level of confidence and self-reliance that I had never known before. I spent the next five consecutive summers as a camper and the six summers following that as a proud member of the Camp Kinneret-Biluim staff team. I met my wife at Camp Kinneret-Biluim and our children have enjoyed the same transformative experience. And that other camper with the same taste in music….he is still my best friend today.

Camp Kinneret enjoys a stellar reputation and one of the highest camper retention and staff satisfaction rates in the industry. Camp Kinneret is known for a staff team that places the needs and well being of it’s campers as it’s first priority; for developing and implementing programs that bring out the best in each and every camper; for creating a community where everyone is made to feel welcome and for being the home of the BSE - BEST SUMMER EVER!

Chazak v’Ematz!
With Strength & Courage
