First-Time Campers
Ready? Set? Camp!
Welcome to your first summer at Camp Tevya!
Everyone has a first summer here, so we know some of what you’re feeling: excitement and maybe a little nervousness. But don’t worry: you’ll feel you are a part of the spirited Tevya family right away!
We start each session with lots of games, both as a whole camp and as a bunk. Campers all have lots of new friends by dinnertime the first day. Plus, at meals we’ll assign each camper to a table with kids of all ages, so everyone will get to know each other together.
First-Timer Welcome Grants
Every first-time camper receives an automatic Welcome Grant of $250 off each regular session. You may also qualify for an additional grant through the OneHappyCamper program. Explore our Tuition Resources, including Cohen Camps financial assistance.

Free Play at Tevya
Each year in early June we welcome enrolled families to camp for an afternoon of fun activities and the chance to get familiar with the space. Camp staff give tours to new campers and families. Snacks and waters are available. This event has already taken place in 2022.
