Looking into Camp Bais Yaakov and anything else that is similar with regard to being frum/Bais Yaakov type of hashkafah and also low maintenance (kids not into brand names, minimal swag, etc)

Does anyone know the dates for CBY this year and which other camps I should be looking into?

Camp bais yaakov you can't get into if you're a 7th grader + applying to camp for first time without older sisters who went. Speaking from experience.

Similar hashkafically and gashmiyusdikly I would recommend -

Camp tehilla

Camp menucha

I'll PM you

If you apply for second half instead of first half you might have better chance getting in.

I'm looking specifically for second half but a couple of the camps that got suggested only run first half!

I keep hearing it’s easier to get into CBY second half. Why is that?

I can’t find the website for twin bridges; it comes up domain expired. I want to know if they are small or large camps, what schools do the girls go to, we would be an 8 year old girl offgrounder.

I send to a non Lakewood camp and first half is impossible to get into. Most girls want to go to camp right away and not wait around half the summer. All camps are harder first half.
