Seder @ CYJ
Leave the planning to us.
APRIL 11-14
Passover @ CYJ! Let us make your Passover unforgettable. Join us for the first three nights of Passover this year, featuring nonstop fun activities and amazing experiences. Not to mention, the best community seder you’ve ever attended… probably. Participate in our CYJ community Seder on the first night and host your own family Seder on the second night. CYJ will provide all the delicious kosher for Passover food and desserts (more than just the afikomen!). Spend quality time with your loved ones while we handle all the details. Celebrate Passover like never before—stress-free and full of joy!
The doors are open to any Jewish family seeking a fun and meaningful holiday, including those new to CYJ! But newcomers, beware—after a weekend of serene surroundings and exciting activities, you might find yourself hooked on Camp Young Judaea… don’t say we didn’t warn you!
Seder @ CYJ offers activities for toddlers, kids, teens, and adults. Evenings feature Seders full of CYJ spirit, combining tradition, song, and connection. Celebrate with our vibrant community or create your own family Seder for a truly personalized experience. Join us for a Passover to remember!

WHAT WILL THE FOOD BE LIKE?
The idea of eating “camp food” may be conjuring images of mystery meat and kool-aid… not to worry— we do run a retreat business during the year, after all! You’ll love our delicious, well-rounded meals. We keep a kosher kitchen year-round with separate meat and dairy kitchens, but are not overseen by a Mashgiach. Seder @ Camp food will all be Kosher for Passover.
CAN YOU TELL ME MORE ABOUT Seder @ CAMP RELIGIOUS PRACTICES?
All of Saturday’s activities will be Shabbat-friendly, but attendants can of course observe Shabbat to their own comfort level in the privacy of their rooms.
The same applies on years when Passover Camp includes the last two holy days of the holiday—our programming will be holiday-friendly in the public areas.
WHAT IS CYJ’S RETREAT REFUND POLICY?
It’s simple and fair! Cancellations made more than 2 weeks before the retreat date will be fully refunded minus a non-refundable $25 registration fee per participant. Cancellations made within 2 weeks of the event will receive a 50% refund. Day of cancellations or no-shows are responsible for 100% of the retreat fees.
