Seminar is ...
an amazing step on the "ladder" of Ramah experiences - a bridge between your years as a camper and your return to camp on staff. Seminar takes you through Israel with a program that is fun and challenging - to your mind and body! You will feel "at home" on Seminar, just as you do in your own Ramah camp.

Friendship ...
takes on new meaning as you get to know Israel together with Ramah friends. Meeting hanichim from all seven Ramah camps makes Seminar an incredible social experience.

Ramah Israel Seminar will inspire you ...
to explore your commitment to Judaism and your personal relationship with Israel. We will encourage you to develop leadership skills and speak Hebrew. Tefillah and Shabbat, in familiar Ramah style, will feel so special in the spiritual, beautiful setting of Israel.

If you're interested in spending more time on Seminar ...
you'll love our pre-Seminar option (June 21- 29) in Poland.

As parents ...
you rely upon Ramah to take excellent care of your children. On Ramah Seminar, safety and security are our first concern, and outstanding educational standards are a high priority. As experts in teen Israel travel, Ramah Seminar provides a safe and explicity structure, guided by the religious and behavioral policies of the Ramah camps.

If you were in the oldest edah at camp in 2008...

or the second to oldest edah in 2007, you are eligible to apply for Seminar '09.
On-line applications are available on our website.
