Yalla! A First-Time Camp Experience 

    Throughout Israel, the phrase “Yalla” can be heard, meaning let’s go!

    Let’s go:

    • Build friendships
    • Learn independence and self-discovery
    • Zip lining
    • Swim and kayak in the lake
    • In the pool
    • Trek through the mud obstacle course
    • Try new things
    • And much more!

    Yalla campers experience all of the joys and adventures of Capital Camps with just a little extra–a higher camper to staff ratio, smaller cabins–and all first-time campers will participate in activities as a cohort to maximize relationship building and counselor care.
