MORE THAN A DAY AT CAMP

Every boy.
His chance to shine.

We are committed to helping every camper enjoy his summer to the fullest. A geshmake morning learning seder with devoted, professional rebbeim sets the tone for a well-rounded day of sports, interactive activities, and opportunities to shine. Campers help create the ruach, bringing their talents and energy into the heart of the program.

01 / GROW

Start with meaning.

Morning learning with devoted rebbeim brings enthusiasm and purpose to the day.

02 / PLAY

Bring your energy.

Top-notch sports, interactive activities, and swimming keep the day full of energy—with choices that give every boy something to enjoy.

03 / EXPLORE

Make it a summer.

Trips, Color War, the cantata, carnivals, and special programs bring fresh excitement and unforgettable memories throughout the summer.

SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE

More ways to shine.

Swimming time offers more than the pool. For boys who prefer another activity, our electives open up a world of choices: starring in a play, enjoying chess and checkers in the game room, or joining a variety of sports. There is something for every camper to enjoy—all within one full camp day.

THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE RUACH

Meet our leadership.

A shared vision.

Rabbi Yehuda Neuwirth

DIRECTOR

After serving as a counselor and head counselor locally, Rabbi Neuwirth founded Camp Kevutza with a clear vision: every camper deserves a chance to be “the guy.” From stage appearances to sports, he creates opportunities for boys to contribute their talents and take an active role in camp life.

His philosophy shapes every program: campers should help create the atmosphere, with their own energy, ideas, and involvement at the heart of the summer.

Reb Yitzchok Eisgrau

LEARNING DIRECTOR

Kevutza’s learning director for almost a decade, Reb Yitzchok Eisgrau brings the experience of a seventh-grade rebbe at the Lakewood Cheder together with many years as a head counselor at Camp Kanfei Yona.

That combination gives him a clear understanding of what a day camp learning program needs. With professional, devoted rebbeim and exciting programs that encourage every camper, he creates a learning experience filled with geshmak and purpose—helping each boy leave the summer with real growth.

He is joined by Reb Shaya Krasnow, a rebbe at the Lakewood Cheder, and Rabbi Yehuda Meller, a rebbe at Yeshiva Sha’agas Aryeh. Together, they bring thoughtful chinuch, professionalism, and enthusiasm to every morning’s learning.

Rabbi Yaacov Eisenman

HEAD COUNSELOR

A Kevutza head counselor for over a decade, Rabbi Eisenman is a sixth-grade rebbe at Yagdil Torah and the English principal at Yeshiva Even Yisroel. He brings a mechanech’s understanding, boundless energy, and a warm personal connection to camp.

His ability to tune in to each camper helps every boy feel noticed, included, and happy. Whether he is leading a program or checking in with a camper, his care and enthusiasm set the tone.

Rabbi Shmuel Rapp

HEAD COUNSELOR

Rabbi Rapp has served as a Kevutza head counselor for four years, building on his experience as a senior camp staff member in Monsey during his years as a bochur. He understands which activities excite and engage each age group.

That insight brings fresh ideas to life—from K Cards to creative programs that add excitement, encourage participation, and enhance every camper’s summer.

THE RIGHT PROGRAM FOR EVERY AGE

Our division head staff.

Each division’s program is carefully geared to its age group, with the care, energy, and attention that help every camper thrive.

Rabbi Binyomin Falik

KEVUTZA EXTREME - GRADES 5-7

Rabbi Falik’s energy and enthusiasm fuel the tremendous ruach of Kevutza Extreme. Fresh surprises, added late nights, and exciting trips give the older campers a summer packed with anticipation and adventure. For boys looking for an Extreme summer, Kevutza is the place to be!

Rabbi Stroh

GRADES 2–3

Rabbi Stroh began as a Kevutza counselor before joining the head staff. He brings that same personal care and concern for every camper to leading the younger division, with a program designed for their age and interests.

Rabbi Tzvi Mayer

4TH GRADE

From Kevutza counselor to head staff, Rabbi Mayer has continued to put each camper’s happiness and growth first. His care and connection shape a fourth-grade program full of age-appropriate excitement and opportunities to participate.

DEVOTED STAFF. LASTING CONNECTIONS.

Year after year. All heart.

Our counselors return to Kevutza year after year—many continuing from their years as bochurim through marriage and becoming fathers. They bring experience, warmth, and an enduring dedication to our campers. Their familiar faces and boundless ruach help make Kevutza feel like a family, giving every camper a summer to remember.
