Bubbie-Zaydie Family Camp
Nine Weekends to Remember!

Bubbie-Zaydie Camp is a special opportunity for grandparents to get to know their grandchildren in a wonderful, safe setting, where trained counselors are on hand to lead all kinds of fun activities. This program is best suited for children 4 and up. SORRY, NO PARENTS ALLOWED.

Your & your grandchildren will enjoy all the best camp has to offer:

  • Singing at Meals
  • Crafts
  • Campfire & S’mores
  • Hayride
  • Swimming
  • Talent Show
  • Old Fashioned Fun at Chalutzim (Pioneer) Adventures

Families will enjoy the warmth and fellowship of a Jewish camp…along with motel-like facilities overlooking a scenic lake.  Each family has its own motel-style room with private bath.

Skilled counselors lead all the activities such as - sports, group games, nature, talent show, fishing, and provide nighttime childcare while adults have their own evening programs. On site are basketball, volleyball and tennis courts. Canoes and rowboats are available on Butzel Lake.

Shabbat is celebrated just like it is at camp, with lots of decorations, singing, and special activities.

Children talk about the weekend for many months, and remember activities and songs long after it’s all over. Family Camps have been a wonderful success story for over 25 years. The food service at Butzel is glatt kosher and under rabbinic supervision.

Please note - this program is best suited for children 4 and up.
