Parents FAQ
Why Camp Dror?
Camp Dror will provide a unique and rich experience for your children combined with great fun. Campers meet with youth from all over the country and the world and create a special relationship with the staff. Camp Dror is the perfect combination of values, personal development and fun.
What is the camp’s Kashrut?
The camp’s food is Kosher LeMehadrin
What if my child has specific dietary instructions or any food allergies?
We have years of successful experience respecting and satisfying any special dietary requirements (such as celiac, sensitivity to glucose, peanut allergies, veganism, vegetarianism, etc.). Please indicate this in the space provided on the Registration Form in order for us to plan and provide for your child.
Until when can I register?
You can register for Camp Dror until June 1 (subject to availability), but we recommend that you register as soon as possible to get the early registration discount. Campers registered within three weeks of the start of camp will incur an additional late fee.
Should I send bedding?
There is no need to send sheets, pillows, blankets or sleeping bags. It is important to send bath and face towels.
Is there a sibling discount?
There is no discount on the early bird price. It is the lowest available price every season. If you register multiple children after early bird has passed, the oldest child pays full price and siblings can get a reduced price. It will apply automatically when you add more than one application.
Is the staff trained?
The camp’s staff is carefully chosen. The staff is experienced in instructing children and youth and undergoes specialized training before the camp session begins.
Are there things I shouldn’t send my child? Do I need to send money with my child?
We recommend that you not send valuables with your children. Full room and board is provided so there is no need to send money. However, if you’re interested in sending your child pocket money (there is a grocery store next to the camp), we recommend that you send no more than 250 NIS for the duration of their stay in the camp. Please do not send laptops, tablets, music players or other electronic devices. We do not allow the use of such devices during camp because they can negatively impact the experience of the fellow campers. Regarding cellphones: On the first day of camp all cellphones will be collected and safeguarded by the camp staff. On Fridays, campers will receive their cellphones for a few hours in order to call family and friends before Shabbat.
