Camp Solomon Schechter
Camp Solomon Schechter has a 60-year tradition of fun, friendship and Jewish education in the Pacific Northwest. As an independent camp, we create a unique, welcoming and spiritual Jewish community in the spirit of the Conservative movement, offering an innovative experience for youth of all denominations entering 2nd-12th grades. At Schechter, Judaism and Joy are truly one! Schechter is located an hour south of Seattle, Washington, and two hours north of Portland, Oregon. Our spectacular 170-acre wooded facility features breathtaking views of our private lake, Lake Stampfer, where campers can swim, boat and fish. Hiking in the untouched beauty of our own forests and protected wetlands augment our exciting outdoor program. The temperate climate of the Pacific Northwest creates the perfect environment for campers to enjoy the outdoors summer after summer. At Schechter, we emphasize the values of integrity, derech eretz (respect) and tikkun olam (repairing the world). We do this through sports, omanut (arts) and teva (nature) to create our ideal Jewish community. We build Jewish identity and commitment, raise self-confidence, develop decision-making skills, improve social skills and enable campers to reach inside themselves and discover talents and abilities they never knew they had.
