Camp Overview
URJ Crane Lake Camp is one of two camps in the northeast serving the Reform Jewish community from northern New Jersey all the way up to Maine. Crane Lake is nestled in the southern Berkshires, and provides a wide array of activities from sports to arts as well as a comprehensive waterfront program. Our intimate camp environment allows campers to embrace the challenge of learning new skills in athletics, aquatics, the arts, and adventure and nature programs. Campers also immerse themselves in a wide range of innovative Jewish educational pursuits and creative spiritual experiences. Every child who spends a summer at Crane Lake Camp returns home a little wiser, more self-confident, and more connected to the Jewish community and their own Jewish identity.
